Father's Day gift guide
Father’s Day takes place on the 21st June, so now is the perfect time to place your order and spoil your dad with treats from the RSPB Shop.
Whether he’s an avid birder, a coffee connoisseur or a hiking enthusiast, we’ve got you covered when it comes to gifts for a variety of budgets, all of which are sure to make his day.
For the birder
Our Skylark 8 x 42 binoculars are the ultimate gift for bird-watching dads. They’re a fantastic price at just £100 and offer superb clarity and image quality. Fully waterproof and nitrogen-filled, they achieve crystal-clear views of wildlife, whatever the weather. If £100 is a bit over your budget, our Swift birder watch is another great option. Beautifully gift-boxed, it has a recycled PU khaki strap and 40mm recycled alloy case. The watch face features a subtle Swift illustration along with ‘RSPB' on the front. For £30, we think it’s a charming gift that any bird-loving dad is sure to adore.
For the plant parent
Hydro-herb kits are the perfect present for plant-loving dads. Available in basil, coriander or mint, these handy kits contain everything your dad needs to grow herbs at home. Housed in a recycled wine bottle, each kit contains enough hydroponic fluid to grow the herb for approximately two years.
For the bookworm
If he’s an avid reader and bird lover, your dad will be spoilt for choice with our selection of bird-themed books. Choose from bird reference books and birdwatching guides, puzzle books, inspirational nature reads and more. We don’t think you can go wrong with Bill Bailey’s Remarkable Guide to British Birds – a surefire hit with most dads!
For the coffee connoisseur
We’ve got a great selection of gifts for coffee-loving dads. Bird & Wild coffee is shade-grown, organic and bird-friendly, so it’s a great eco-conscious choice. We have a signature espresso blend and medium roast coffee available, along with instant coffee. Why not choose a mug to go alongside it, too? Our Starling murmuration travel mug is ideal for dads who are always on the go, or opt for a mug from our Flock collection – we have swallow, Puffin and Kingfisher designs available.
For the wildlife lover
If your dad is working on creating the perfect wildlife garden, we have lots of great gift ideas available to help him bring his wildlife haven to life. From Hedgehog houses to bee homes, wildflower seeds and bird boxes, our wildlife section is full to the brim with great ideas.
For the hiking enthusiast
This camera multi-tool is a great option for anyone who loves hiking or long walks – it has 13 different functions in one, including wrenches, bottle openers, saw blades and more. Our sustainable foldaway backpack is another great choice. With an 18l capacity, breathable mesh straps and handy side pockets, it’s great for outdoor adventurers. It also does exactly what it says on the tin – folds away neatly when not in use. Our Starling murmuration water bottle is also perfect for hikers. It has a lovely Starling murmuration illustration on and stays hot for up to 12 hours, or cold for up to 24.
For the dad who has everything
Struggling to come up with a gift for the dad who has everything? We don’t think you can go wrong with a good pair of socks – our bamboo men’s wader socks are super soft – a real treat for the feet! Failing that, why not treat dad to a gift card, so he can pick his own gift? We have gift cards from £10-£100 available.
