Bird Watching Tips
1. Choice of Location
It is very important in bird watching to choose the location, many birders spend the majority of their bird watching time and energy on poor locations.
2. Knowledge of Species
There are approximately 1250 species of birds in India and recognizing each of them is nearly impossible. So when you visit any area for bird watching, do a little research first. You may find that perhaps only a few species actually inhabit that particular area. With a little preparation,
you will be able to more readily identify bird species from each other.
3. Practice before you go for bird watching
It is always better to learn to put your binocular on target, it is key to viewing wildlife, and especially birds, after only a few attempts, you'll get good at quickly acquiring your target. Quite often, birds are visible for only a few seconds, practice to become proficient.
4. Listing to Call and songs :
Listening helps you hear rustling leaves, wings flapping, and the birds calling.
It is pretty amazing what you can hear once you really start listening. Besides, if you spend the whole day just using your eyes to look for birds, you probably won't see very many. So instead of just looking, relax your eyes, don't look so hard; let the birds find you. You will start to notice movement in your periferal vision, and then you will have an area to look in.
5. Get a pair of Binocular :
Spending time and money to get to the right place can be totally wasted when your binoculars are inadequate. If you have an inexpensive pair of binoculars you are not getting the most out of your viewing. Today's technologies come at a price and they provide
Crucial benefits in wildlife viewing. For instance, image stabilization will keep your view from shaking-very important when watching from a long
Distance. Other cool features include anti-fogging, low-light viewing and wide-view characteristics. Additionally, binoculars with built-in digital
cameras enable you to identify birds once you get home. These benefits will definitely enhance your bird watching. A great pair of binoculars will
turn a mediocre experience into a great one. You can count on it!
6. Take someone with you :
It is always better if you take someone with you, who knows the area well and have experience of bird watching, it will help you to remember the sightings
