About Us

We started For the Birds Nature Shop in Mahone Bay, Nova Scotia to share our passion for nature with new and experienced wild bird and weather enthusiasts.  We invest countless hours researching, selecting and field testing the best-designed bird feeding equipment, birding optics and weather instruments to ensure our customers’ satisfaction.

As a family owned and operated business, we value “old-fashioned” quality, selection and service.  We ship orders all across Canada with our year round internet mail order service and operate a small seasonal retail showroom in Mahone Bay.

Sincerely,

Brian & Kelly Delaney

Our retail showroom is located at 647 Main Street in the Town of Mahone Bay, Nova Scotia, Canada (Retail hours are limited, scroll down for details).
