Looking and Listening
To become successful, birders must not only develop the skills of visual identification, but also become versed in recognizing various bird vocalizations. Because some birds are more easily detected and distinguished by their calls, serious birders often undertake in-depth studies of bird calls, and may even learn to reproduce the calls to pacify or attract elusive species. -
