Checkout my first day of birding/bird photography in Ecuador here: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/a9yTYK98vK6qgWg.html

A literal decided 10 minutes ago that I wanted to get into bird watching. Figured it would be good for not just me but my 5 year old. He loves all the birds that hang around our house.

Hope you enjoyed the video! I tried giving a few tips you may not hear very often. I'm planning to make more videos talking about specific tips while out in the field and while learning to identify birds in your area. I'll also be doing some birding vlogs now that the snow is finally starting to melt :D

Speaking of ebird... I'm going to an island this week where there are no recorded bird sightings on ebird. I will probably be the first!

I liked the life list tip. I'll start right away. :D It doesn't hurt that I'm really into lists and organising data & statistics. 🤓

The third tip, go out with an experienced birder, This is the one. It makes all the difference if you will bother to pay attention to what they are telling you. This is how I learned. Also, leave the field glasses down and look at the shape, silhouette, and behavior of the bird.

I love your nerdy enthusiasm for birding! new birder here.. helpful info. thank you!

This video is very good I am also Birder and I am from India

2:46. I've been in that situation myself. Went to South Africa on holiday, saw a good few birds that I'm only now trying to ID. I have only started to get into birdwatching in the last year, I probably missed so many amazing birds

Wow! I was looking for a channel about birding and wildlife photography for so long. This the is perfect place. Love your works.

I feel I'm learning a lot now, but am humbled by other birders' knowledge. Thanks for the tips!

Another dope video man, great tip about IG and definitely true, I never thought of that!!

Hey, I'm glad I found your channel..Looks great..cheers mate...)

Thank you! I have all kinds of “birding for beginners” tips that I was confused! This video helped make things focused so I can just start!

I enjoy watching your videos. Thank you for sharing your experience 😊

This is great my friend. I like it.

Wonderful - thank you!

I used to be interested in birdwatching and I very much regret that I did not make livelist. now that the passion has returned I have to ,,start all over again"

Very inquisitive mind, you make a great coach!

Great video!

I love birds! 🦜🐥🐦

I did purchased a retirement house in the mountains of Cali-Colombia and is just the best place for birds . So many type and difference kinds of birds , as soon a retired that is my hobby bird watch. Thanks for u tips .

I hope soon to receive P1000, first idea was to take random photos. But later realised I can list birds in area. Really interesting 😊

Great video, lots of helpful tips!

Good tips! I'm going to take up birding this year, so good timing too! :)

sweet video! Keep the great new videos coming!

Congrats on 200 subs 👍👍👍

Thank you, for all the tips,I'm very impressed for your input.

I follow you on IG, and didn’t know you have a KZfaq channel. Great content you have a new sub. ;)

Great video Stefano. Keep it up!

Im tired of myself for having too many interessts and hobbies, painting, music, the gym, but as a kid i used to love nature and birds and i want to get out of the house and in nature more. I feel like i want to go birding but i feel overwhelmed

Well documented, kudos for the effort.

Great advice

Many don't realise that when you put a list of birds publicly using eBird, you are supplying the list to poachers who will go through that to find the exact bird they want to capture. In countries where enforcement is scarce, we tend to lose our species from indiscriminate reporting that way. No, we birders here don't expose our wild birds this way.

love from kolkata,india

I am in a similar situation, having been interested in birds all my life but never really focused on writing down what I saw even though I would go ID a lot of things - so I was able to dig through photos and add Surf Scoter from Alaska, Blue and Gold Macaw from Florida and Laughing Gull from the bahamas, plus a Townsend's Warbler from my yard last Oct, but tough luck for all the other birds from those places plus mexico and canada and I have no idea when I'll get to go back! Everyone who even marginally enjoys bird viewing and identifying should consider recording their sightings for sure

Informative and interesting video. Thank you for posting! 👍

I like your channel. Good tips for beginer birder like me.... a new friend from Indonesia.

Wonderfull video! Very interesting ! Thanks for sharing this!

nice 👍😊🇮🇩

Thank you Stefano!!!

great ideas

great tips

I like the birdwatching

Wish eBird would put pic by the name of the bird. ( Visual learner)

I take photos as a new birder to help ID some birds later. Fortunately they can be added even after you have closed the list.

"Go out with as many as different birders possible"... 😭😭😭 As a new south east michigan resident, don't even know anyone to go out on birding with. Wish I was in my childhood when making friends was easy as just going out and hangout with other kids 😭😭

great videos

Im here because i just walked outside and saw a cardinal and thought "I'm gonna get into bird watching." 😅

I decided to get into birding an hour ago. Unfortunately, where I live there isn't a lot of green and I don't think there's much to see there. Maybe pigeons.

You just need to come to india 🇮🇳 , We have some of the best Birding locations out here !

“Follow Thomas” has a nice channel

Im not saying youre tips arent good but i have only a binocular and no other cool stuff and i seen eagles,vultures,owls.(i take it as a hobby)

What's the bird at 0:50?
