      Haha. I started feeding birds on my balcony this winter and i love it.

      I don’t go out to watch birds (yet), but i love checking what’s up with the birds in the garden, know pretty much all of them, learning their songs etc.

      Also now on vacation i am way more tuned into what the birds are doing than i used to be, kinda opened another audible dimension.

        I have a low key interest in birds and have been using the Merlin app to ID them by photo, description, or their song. You can set it to record, then just chill in the backyard while it lists the birds it hears.

      Yeah it creeps up on you with age… I’ve recently installed an app for it and slowly adding more of the birds I see in there. For now that’s it, I don’t go out of my way for it, but I guess that’s how it starts…

        I liked it at 11. Used to annoy teachers doodling eagles and owls on absolutely everything.
