Featuring original woodpecker artwork, this set of pocket notebooks was inspired by our totem bird, the pileated woodpecker. The “spark bird” for many new birders—its striking red crest and powerful pecking action are why Shallow Brook Drive exists. To celebrate that spark and a passion for looking up, we created this set of notebooks in collaboration with and we’re over-the-moon excited! Whether you’re a casual backyard birder or an avid life-list collector, we hope the artwork inspires you, and you fill the pages with stuff that’s important to you.

Quarantine has brought with it many challenges, but for many it’s been a time to explore new hobbies—from woodworking to backyard birding to ... DIY face mask making! We salute these two for their ingenious use of our bird pun tea towels from ! Official mask-sewing instructions suggest using a tea towel (pretty cool!). Anna and Billy whipped these up using the no-sew method. And for those discovering a new interest in their backyard birds, we recommend checking out Shallow Brook Drive friend whose daily bird photo project has been keeping us smiling. Stay safe and healthy everyone!

What's the first requirement of birding?

A sense of humor! (And binoculars, of course).

Meet Sarah Edmonds, our newest artist! Sarah is an illustrator and designer living and working in the UK. Sarah spent her childhood adventuring around farmyards and forests, the natural world feeding her imagination until it burst! Inspired by mid-century children's books, wild birds and gardening, she loves a good pun.

Her collection of illustrated greeting cards and tea towels feature bird charts of "T**s," "Bo***es," "Peckers," "Ho***rs" (and so on!). Her creative process always begins with crayons, pens and paper, and she blends bright colors with wonky shapes to add character and warmth to each illustration.

Of her work, she says: "I love to make people giggle and embrace their mischievous side."

Us too, Sarah 😁 Enjoy fellow bird and word nerds! Shop here: https://shallowbrookdrive.com/collections/sarah-edmonds-illustration.

I wanted to find a wild bird seed company that checked all the same company values, aligned with our mission, and was non-GMO and grown in the USA. Thrilled to have found , and proud to offer them in our store! The Woodpecker Gourmet could be mistaken for trail mix it’s so full of almonds and fruits (so be careful if you’re headed for a hike!☺️). We have five mixes to start, all great year-round. @ Des Moines, Iowa

Artisan bird sighting in lovely Sedona! I wish I had caught the name of the artist behind this piece but we were hurting off to a hike. His high tops say it all.
