I am a (bad) birdwatcher.
Simon Barnes makes a great case for all of us becoming (bad) birdwatchers.
Why? Birds are everywhere, birds come in a great variety, and birds are amazing.
I think we can all agree on that.
Barnes encourages us to learn a little about birds around us to start. This is exactly what we have done here at my house during the pandemic. We have big windows that look out onto our bird feeder and bird bath. We have spent a lot of time looking at the birds as they stop for seeds and water. We've learned to identify a dozen sorts of birds, and we have had great pleasure in watching them and photographing them.
If you are like me, you would love reading this little book.
