Along with the boom in birdwatching in 2020, the sometimes accompanying hobby of digiscoping also saw new enthusiasts join in during our pandemic year. Digiscoping is the use of a spotting scope along with a digital photographic device (camera or smartphone) to take pictures. 

This funny text was made for digiscopers. The design uses distressed letters for a vintage look. The full phrase is shown here on a coffee mug: Old Digiscopers Never Die, They Just Lose Their Focus. You can easily choose a different mug style if you'd like something more colorful than this classic 11 oz mug. And if you like this design but would like to see it on a different product entirely, like a t-shirt or a tote bag, that's possible with Zazzle's easy tools.

Do you know someone who got into birding in 2020? The year of avoiding crowds and staying safer at home drove a lot of people to find new ways to keep entertained, and birdwatching was that bright spot for so many.

From new birders to anyone else similarly obsessed with studying our feathered friends, this funny graphic text design is a great choice. Bold blue letters read "talk birdy to me" with cute cut-outs in the shapes of birds found throughout the text. The design is shown here on a dark blue t-shirt, but you can easily choose a different apparel style or color.

This cute design was made for bird banders (or bird ringers) -- those who put metal or other identification bands on the legs of birds for scientific purposes. 

The text on this mug design is a spoof of the phrase "I'm with the Band". Here the bold black text reads "I'm with the Banders". The text is accompanied by an illustration of one of the tools of the trade: a 5-hole set of bird banding pliers.

This funny cartoon design does not have a typo. An illustrated Bald Eagle bows down and appears to be moving its face. The image has the caption: EAGLE FEAK.

Feaking refers to the act of a bird cleaning its beak by rubbing it against a hard surface, such as on a branch or other perch. Birds typically do this after eating and sometimes after or during preening. The term is often used in falconry to describe the action taken by a bird of prey, but songbirds feak, too.

Add "phile" to the end of a word or word stem to indicate love. A Larophile is someone who loves birds in the Laridae family -- gulls and allies. 

Gulls can be a challenging family of avian species to study and understand. Different plumages for different age birds adds to the challenge of gull identification. 

This hat was made for anyone who loves to study and observe gulls. Gull foot yellow text reads "LAROPHILE" while an adult gull soars by. Can you ID this bird? Help shade your eyes from blinding sun glare with this gull lover hat.

Peregrine Falcons are the fastest animal on earth. When diving, or stooping, for prey, they can travel at speeds over 200mph. This amazing species made a spectacular comeback from the brink of extinction and we are lucky to share our planet with them. 

This original design for birders and bird lovers spoofs these high speed birds with a cheeky message. The text reads "Peregrines Like It Fast" in a grunge-style font. A silhouette of a Peregrine Falcon in a high-speed stoop accompanies the text. Overall the design is distressed for a vintage look.
