I Turned My Porch Into a Birdwatcher's Paradise With the BirdBuddy Pro
This post is sponsored by BirdBuddy.
Spring is finally here, and I’m giving my front porch a little refresh to really enjoy the season—but this year, I’m doing something a little different.
I added the BirdBuddy Pro Smart Feeder, and it’s not just a pretty addition. This smart bird feeder actually brings me closer to nature in the coolest way.

1. A smarter, sleeker bird feeder
The BirdBuddy Pro is an upgrade from the original BirdBuddy, which was named one of Time's Best Inventions of 2023.
With built-in AI, a stunning camera, and a solar-powered design, it’s taken my backyard bird watching to a whole new level.
Everything in the box is intuitive and well thought out. Set-up was quick and simple—after charging the camera, I secured it inside and chose how I’d be mounting it.
2. Easy set-up, thoughtful features
I attached the universal mount with the included screws, then filled it with a mix of bird seed and added suet to the attached holder.
Fun fact: suet is a high-fat, protein-packed treat that gives birds the energy they need during colder months.
I even added fresh apple slices and topped off the water bottle.
I just mounted it by my porch, filled it, and I was ready to meet some feathered friends.
3. Built for every season
One feature I’ve come to really appreciate is the built-in solar panel. I never have to worry about charging—it powers itself, even on cloudy and rainy days. The BirdBuddy Pro is truly made for all seasons: rain, snow, or sun.
4. The magic is in the app
Once it was up and running, I downloaded the BirdBuddy app to unlock all its smart features.
The AI species recognition is incredible. Every time a bird visits, the app identifies it and logs the sighting for me—complete with fun facts and stunning photos.
5. A front-row seat to nature
The 2K camera is next level. Every image is crisp, colorful, and full of detail—you can literally see every feather and tiny movement. It feels like a nature documentary is happening right outside my door.
6. Quiet moments, big joy
Since setting up the BirdBuddy Pro, I’ve found myself spending more time being present—watching birds, sipping coffee, soaking up the quiet. It’s honestly become one of my favorite parts of the day.
7. Final thoughts & special offer
If you’re thinking about upgrading your outdoor space this spring, I highly recommend checking out the BirdBuddy Pro.
