Hi everyone,
I'm definitely new to this game. My "birding experience" involves walking down my road to a local pond in the early morning hours, where I generally see more turtles than birds.
How do you guys optimize your chances of having a thrilling birding experience? Admittedly, I can't tell you anything more than "that's a blue bird" and I'm a bit intimidated on starting interest in identifying birds, because I don't know how to look up "blue bird sighted near the pond next to my house."
Thanks!
