The Bird Parade South collection will be live on our site this Wednesday, September 23rd at 1 PM ET! An automatic purchase limit of 1 per household for all items will be lifted 24 hours after launch đŸȘ¶

Just as many birds fly south before winter and north in the spring, the Hazel Village animals march in the Bird Parade twice a year. In late September they march southward, scattering birdseed and performing their best birdcalls. That way, the birds who are flying overhead can have a little snack, and a helpful guide of which way to fly.

Naturally, the animals don their best avian attire for this important event! This collection includes 7 products in total: 2 outfit sets, 4 items of doll clothing, and 1 mini bird book. Read on for all the details!

Four Village friends sit atop a wooden stool against a bright forest backdrop, all wearing their best Bird Parade South finery. Gracie Cat wears the Birdwatching Set over her favorite Linden Leaf Overalls, Owen Fox dazzles in the vibrant Hummingbird Helmet, Arthur Lamb is as pleased as punch to show off his handmade Crow Costume, and Lewis feels very fancy in his Tern Wing Vest and Orielle Overalls. Behind them, Florence Bat peeks over the back of the chair in her Sandhill Crane Bonnet.
