What is 'BirdWatching'

Birdwatching is a scientific activity that most casual. And vice versa too, Birdwatching is an activity that most scientific sport ... (Bas van Balen)
The definition is meant by Birdwatching is the observation of birds in nature. People who make observations of bird called a Birdwatcher. Observations of birds is not always a monopoly of biologists, but also can be implemented by everyone. Observations of birds at first condensed with a scientific mission, subsequently developed into an enjoyable hobby for the layman.
To make observations or become an observer is actually quite easy. Birds are the most common animals found anywhere, even in an urban. With only present in one location and provision of a strong desire to see and understand the natural phenomenon of course, already be enough capital. The tools look like binoculars are not always absolutely necessary. Binoculars needed in special circumstances, such as object distance far enough, the object can not be approached, or indeed want to observe more details.
There are some things that need to be prepared before making the observation of birds. When making observations should not wear clothes with flashy colors. Try to wear clothing with the color of a camouflaged with their surroundings, so that birds are not disturbed by the presence of observers.Need to bring a small notebook to record the bird species found, or to sketch the kind that have not been identified. Do not over rely on the memories, because in line with the passage of time the information can be forgotten.Identification guide book will be helpful, especially when visiting new areas, or still a novice observer. Once again, it is not wise to rely on memory alone.
Observations should be performed as early as possible, because the birds most active during the morning. In the afternoon can also be done, but usually not as active as birds that were found in the morning. To the birds in coastal areas is still possible to be observed when the blazing sun, because relatively unaffected by the hot conditions.The ideal position when the observation is with his back to the sun, or on the side. If facing directly towards the coming of light, then the object will appear dark or be a silhouette, and make the eyes glare.Walk slowly and do not speak loudly so that the bird was not surprised. A moment of silence at a point of observation will be helpful, because when birds come back will feel comfortable, assuming the observer as part of its environment.
Ability to recognize and identify the problem simply habit. More and more, or frequent observations, then the easier it will eventually recognize a type. But there are some types that still require identification in order to ensure the complex type.
