Birdfy, a leading innovator in smart birdwatching solutions, will return to the 2026 Biggest Week in American Birding as one of the festival sponsors.
The brand has prepared to showcase its newly-launched birdwatching innovation and award-winning devices to appeal to budding birders and birding enthusiasts. Its designated Global Consultant and Brand Ambassador will also be on site to lead field trips, share conservation insights and present demonstrations of Birdfy's smart devices.
This year, the Biggest Week takes place at the Maumee Bay State Park Lodge and Conference Center in Oregon, Ohio, between May 8 and 17. The festival will feature field trips, presentations, Birder's Marketplace, and other fascinating birding programs.
The 2025 Biggest Week attracted 2,600 participants from across the globe, with more than 200 field trips and 78 programs.
Time to Shine With Brand New and Award-Studded Birding Devices
At the festival, Birdfy will showcase its lineup of smart birdwatching products, spanning smart bird feeders, bird baths, birdhouses, and creative add-ons. Among them, the Birdfy Feeder Metal 2 (4K) is the first Birdfy smart device on the market to feature 4K video recording. The Metal 2 smart feeder, which debuted in April, delivers an immersive birding experience through presenting stunning 4K nature shows in every birder's backyard.
Built with birds' well-being in mind, the new device prides itself on all-metal construction that ensures long-lasting durability, and a beechwood perch offering comfortable grips for feathery friends. Its support for dual-band Wi-Fi networks means easy setup. A high-performance external antenna guarantees smooth streaming in larger yards.
The Birdfy Bath Pro, an award-winning innovation, will also be on display at the Marketplace this year. It is an all-mighty, bird-friendly innovation delivering the ultimate birdwatching experience. Featuring a dual-lens camera, the solar-powered device can capture all splashy moments with its wide-angle lens and 2K auto-tracking lens. As a sustainable "puddle," it caters to birds of all sizes with multi-level perches.
The Bath Pro was named a Special Mention on TIME's 2025 Best Inventions list and won the CES 2026 Best of Innovation award.
Attendees at the 2026 Biggest Week can also experience other advanced Birdfy products first-hand. They include the fan-favorite Birdfy Feeder and the brand's flagship products, Birdfy Feeder 2 Pro and Birdfy Feeder 2 Duo. The classic bestseller, Birdfy Feeder, now supports 2K video recording owing to a major firmware upgrade in late 2025. Equipped with dual-lens cameras, both flagship models of the Birdfy Feeder 2 Series capture enchanting moments of wild birds from multiple angles, elevating birdwatching experiences.
