Our take on the Birds On A Wire Ceramic Novelty Coffee Mug

This is a 12-ounce ceramic mug printed with bird silhouettes that turn into 18 full-color species once a hot drink is poured in. It is aimed at birders and nature lovers who want a small daily surprise with their coffee. The heat-change coating is the whole appeal, and it is the main trade-off: the mug is microwave safe but not dishwasher safe, so it needs hand washing. Against plain ceramic mugs it offers novelty rather than durability, and against other color-changing mugs it stands out for the number of species shown.

The mug shows bird silhouettes at room temperature. Pour in a hot drink and 18 species, including American Goldfinch, Indigo Bunting and Northern Mockingbird, appear in color. The colors fade again as the mug cools.
Is it dishwasher safe?
No. The heat-changing coating is not dishwasher safe, so wash it by hand. It is microwave safe for reheating drinks.

Is it a good gift for a bird-watcher?
