The Backyard Wild Bird & Nature Store

The moment you walk through the door the wonderful smell of cedar and their friendly staff greet you. Just the most amazing bird store!! I’ve learned SO MUCH over the years about our local birds from the amazing owner Colin! They always answer my e mail or phone queries promptly and carry quality seeds and related products. It’s the highlight of our Nanaimo shopping trip!

Wouldn't even answer their phone.

Wonderful displays, of feeder items, bulk specific grains for different birds, unique bird houses...plus several live video feed from many site watches. As for information on birds and their behaviour I, as a professional PhD biologist, was very impressed with the knowledge that the owner and staff have. Accurate for what I knew, but with so much more local information of our BC birds!
