How to birdwatch<br />

Birdwatching is an activity that has a low environmental<br />

impact. It is best <strong>do</strong>ne in small groups whose<br />

success <strong>de</strong>pends on keen environmental awareness<br />

and respect for the visited area. The need to have<br />

trained professionals to receive and accompany<br />

birdwatching tourists generates employment and<br />

income for the local communities – so this form of<br />

tourism is inherently linked with a sustainable<br />

economy in harmony with nature, and is an<br />

i<strong>de</strong>al way for the public to enjoy protected<br />

areas worldwi<strong>de</strong>.<br />

Why birdwatch Scientists observe<br />

birds in the wild in or<strong>de</strong>r to better<br />

un<strong>de</strong>rstand their behavior and relationship<br />

with the environment, but most<br />

birdwatchers <strong>do</strong> it just to appreciate<br />

their beauty and because they find birds<br />

interesting and enjoy looking for species they<br />

haven’t seen before.<br />

Who can birdwatch Anyone can birdwatch. Birdwatchers<br />

can either travel in search of new species or<br />

pursue their hobby from close to home. Many make<br />

precise and <strong>de</strong>tailed notes that can prove of great<br />

help to scientists.<br />
