Birding
Birdwatching, or birding, is a form of wildlife observation in which people observe the wonder and beauty of birds. This can be done as a hobby or as part of a citizen science project. It can be done wherever you go, as birds are all around us. Most birdwatchers use binoculars or scopes to help identify the trickier species, but you can also "bird by ear" as most birds have unique songs and calls that distinguish them from one another.Â
