The Life-Affirming Magic of Birds

Birds are a way to engage with nature that is accessible to all who want to experience it. If you can use any of your senses, (apart from taste, you can't just lick a bird), then you can be. a birder'. If you can hear the beatboxing starling from the tree outside your garden, you can be a birder. If you can see the flash of navy plumage as a swallow swoops above you as you lay on the grass, you can be a birder.
