Description
Have you ever listened to the birds singing outside and wondered about the awe and joy that is our world? We can learn a lot about the human race just by observing the natural world around us. A great way to do this is to explore bird watching as a hobby.
Bird watching is growing in popularity around the world. In fact, it is only second to gardening!
Birds give us beauty, entertainment, observational skills, and so much more. It can be very challenging to identify species of birds. And this book will show you different ways to not only identify birds, but how you can learn about their unique traits and even the songs they sing!
From the wren to the eagle, you'll gain a new appreciation for not only the bird as an animal, but the bird as a part of our whole world.
Here's some of what's inside:
- The equipment you'll need
- What to look for in a good pair of binoculars
- Bird watching etiquette
- Tips for identifying birds
- Appreciating the songs of birds
- Attracting birds to your back yard
- Landscaping for birds
- AND MORE!
Bird watching is a simple sport, but it is a sport. It requires practice, concentration, and skills to become adept at it. The beginning bird watcher can't go out one time and know exactly what kind of birds they encounter. It takes time and practice and -- above everything else -- patience!
Because you don't need special equipment to watch birds, you can literally do it anywhere -- parks, forests, even your own backyard!
In this book you'll learn:
- What to look for when identifying a bird
- How to recognize a bird by their song
- How to use a field guide when bird watching
- What type of bird seed to use and how certain seeds can attract specific birds
- Making your own bird bath to bring the birds to your own yard
- How to make your own bird house
- The best ways to landscape your yard to attract birds
What can you expect to gain when you start your bird watching journey?
So much! You'll gain:
- Fun: Big fun. Something deep seems to get fulfilled. A connection is made with the immense beauty of nature.
- Satisfaction: Birding invokes our primeval hunting instincts. It delivers all the satisfaction of the hunt, even though the prey itself escapes unharmed. Birding is the perfect sport for the 21st Century.
- Health: Birding gets you vertical. It gets you outside and walking. But it's effortless, because your attention is on the birds. After a little birding, you've usually covered quite a bit of ground.
- Family: Birding unites people across generations. By taking up birding, parents or grandparents can introduce their children to an interest in nature that will stay with them all their lives.
- Companionship: Birding is the ideal social activity. A birder need never be lonely. Nearly every community has a birding club of some sort. And because birders love to share their knowledge, newcomers are always welcome.
- Solitude: Birding is also the ideal solitary sport. There's a special pleasure in going out alone to bird. Your mind settles down. Your senses open up, and all nature seems to become your friend. Birding is a sport of many moods, and it serves the causes of companionship and solitude equally well.
Get in touch with nature and join one of the most relaxing and peaceful hobbies of bird watching. You'll be introduced into a world you've always known was out there, but never knew how to appreciate today!
