Field Guide to All the Birds We Found in One Year in the US, signed

A bird book with actual personality, imagine that.

This signed copy of Field Guide to All the Birds We Found in One Year is a playful, illustrated take on a year of birding across the United States, blending field guide energy with humor, art, and the kind of observations only bird people really appreciate.

Even better, this copy is not just signed, it is inscribed with a cheeky note, which gives it a little extra charm and makes it feel more like a one of a kind keepsake than something pulled off a shelf.

Perfect for birders, list chasers, road trip dreamers, and anyone who likes their nature writing with a wink.

Great for: bird lovers, festival attendees, coffee table collectors, and that one friend who absolutely would pish their pants.

Dom Pérignon Vintage 2006

This Dom Perignon Vintage 2006 is one of the most celebrated releases from the house, known for its balance, depth, and long, elegant finish. Crafted only in exceptional years, Dom Pérignon reflects patience, precision, and a commitment to doing things the right way.

The 2006 vintage is rich and expressive, with layered notes of orchard fruit, toasted brioche, and a fine, persistent mousse. It's the kind of champagne that turns an ordinary evening into something worth remembering.

Properly stored and in good condition, with minor cosmetic wear to the foil at the top of the bottle that does not affect the quality of the wine.
