Birding is about a lot more than spotting a bird and adding another checkmark to your life list! This week on Busted Knees and Pretty Trees, we're joined by Frank Izaguirre, Marketing and Communications Manager for the American Birding Association, to talk about the wonderful, sometimes complicated, and always fascinating world of Birding.
We discuss how social media is changing the way people discover birds, the importance of ethical wildlife observation, and whether birders have a responsibility to become conservation advocates.
We also dive into Frank's writing and field guide reviews, the challenges facing bird populations, the importance of official Birding rules, and one of the great birding debates. Does a bird count on your life list if you've only heard it and never seen it?
Whether you're a seasoned birder, a backyard birdwatcher, or someone who can't tell a robin from a redstart, there's something here for you!
