Birdwatching

You can know the name of a bird in all the languages of the world.
But when you're finished, you'll know absolutely nothing whatever about the bird.
So let's look at the bird and see what it's doing - that's what counts
I learned very early the difference between knowing the name of something and knowing something.

Bird Watch Bird watching or birding is the observation and study of birds with the naked eye, through a visual enhancement device like binoculars and telescopes, or by listening for bird calls. Birding often involves a significant auditory component, as many bird species are more readily detected and identified by ear than by eye. Most birdwatchers pursue this activity mainly for recreational or social reasons, unlike ornithologists, who engage in the study of birds using more formal scientific methods.
