RMR-068: Beyond Birding with Steven Hopp – a Fall Rally Preview.
Birders are good at making lists. Bird counts by year and bird count over a lifetime. But what about beyond the counting?
Beyond Birding is learning about the entire life of the bird. Go beyond the flitting seconds it takes to count it.
Steven has spent many years going beyond the count. Do you know if the bird you counted last year is the exact same bird that you counted this year? What has happened in the life of that bird since you counted it last year?
This is a fascinating concept that may add a lot more interest to your birding.
