Let the world know that birding is more than just a hobby — it’s your lifestyle. This decorative aluminum license plate proudly proclaims your passion for avian adventures with the clever phrase BI:RD O’CLOCK printed in clean, bold text on a sleek dark background. It’s a humorous nod to the early mornings birders know all too well — those pre-dawn wake-up calls that signal it’s time to grab your binoculars, lace up your boots, and hit the trail in search of feathered friends.

Measuring the standard U.S. license plate size, this lightweight and durable accessory is perfect for use on the front of your vehicle in states that only require one plate. Don’t live in one of those states? No problem — it also makes a fun piece of wall art in your birding-themed office, cozy study, garage, or even your bird blind.

Whether you call your car the "birdmobile," "warbler wagon," or just your trusty birding companion, this novelty plate is a great way to show your birder identity on the go. It pairs wonderfully with traditional back plates that support conservation groups, wildlife rehab centers, or state and national parks — giving your vehicle both a voice and a cause.

This license plate also makes a great gift idea for fellow bird lovers, especially those who appreciate a touch of humor and a dash of minimalist style. Perfect for birthdays, holidays, or as a treat to yourself — because when it comes to birding, it’s always BI:RD O’CLOCK somewhere.

For a lot of birders in the United States, winter is one of the best times to go looking for ducks. It’s Weird Duck Time! This is the season when waterfowl lovers get the chance to spot species that are otherwise elusive—ducks that breed in the far north begin migrating south as the temperatures drop, making brief but exciting appearances across the lower 48.

One of the stars of this seasonal shift is the American Wigeon, a striking dabbling duck known for its pale forehead, green eye stripe (on the male), and its charming wheezy whistle of a call. While they breed in northwestern North America, their winter range stretches impressively—from the Atlantic coast, throughout the central flyways, and all the way down the Pacific coastline. These elegant ducks can also be found wintering well into Central America and the northern parts of South America.

John James Audubon's painting of a pair of American Widgeons (using the traditional older spelling) was included in his original Birds of America series. Duck seekers will enjoy this poster-sized replica of the iconic painting by America's most famous ornithologist.

The print is presented here in 24" by 20" size. Other standard poster size are available, or you can choose your own custom size, up to 40" wide!

If you're not interested in a poster, that's okay. Thanks to the flexibility of Zazzle’s product tools, you can easily transfer this design to just about any item in their huge catalog. Want your Wigeons on a tote bag? Mug? Pillow? You got it. Learn how to do that here:
