explodicle, Maybe it’s the hearing loss. I can still hear birds perfectly.
thisismyhaendel, I really got into it this year (early 30’s) and I am straight kicking my younger self, when I knew someone with 5 pet birds and I didn’t care!
GuitarAbuser, It’s true. As a young boy I wanted to see tits so bad but nowadays all I need is just look out the window
twig, I legit can’t imagine ever being indifferent to birds
kameecoding, I too hate how the CIA uses them to spy on us
umbrella, 
also whos naming those things.
sugar_in_your_tea, The cool birdwatching type.
Zoboomafoo, I just put up a bird feeder, I’m doomed
Bishma, 
I started with one. Now there’s 4 and I designed a squirrel feeder.
Ookami38, Need to design a squirrel yeeter, damn things eat too much.
Sam_Bass, Close. Ive been noticing more bluejays and cardinals around here the last couple years. Mockingbirds are always around but dont see them as much
Thcdenton, My bro killed a coyote the other day and left the carcass near our house. Now we have condors. They’re so fuckin cool.
Mouselemming, Oh I have always wanted to see condors! Like from when I was about 5. There were only about 60 then. Then they rounded up all 22 of the last California Condors in 1987… Now there’s over 500 and you get to see them! No lead in your brother’s ammo, I hope and expect.
Thcdenton, Thats a good point. I’ll ask him about that.
randombullet, I wanted to figure out the call of a bird, then I downloaded Merlin, and now I bought a 400mm lens to get sick photos of birds. What the hell happened
Ookami38, Fuckin app has cost me so much for a free app…
01101000_01101001, Came here to shill for Merlin, too
LaunchesKayaks, 
Me, except I can only identify waterfowl easily. Mostly different types of ducks.
Pringles, I have you tagged as “Duck expert” based on one of your previous comments or posts, so that checks out.
LaunchesKayaks, Lmaooo
SuperSaiyanSwag, This is so fucking relevant to me right now, just yesterday I heard a woodpecker on my walk and I made it my mission to spot it in that giant tree. Then in my later walk I saw a red cardinal. Later I was talking about how it’s kinda cheating when people pick ostrich, peacock, penguin etc as their favorite birds, and it slowly dawned on me that I’m becoming a bird guy.
I_Has_A_Hat, I like a lot of birds, but let’s be honest; the peacock really is the most beautiful bird, it’s not even a close competition.
SuperSaiyanSwag, That was my pick too and then my girlfriend penguin. In my opinion those were boring picks, so I added the stipulation of size.
systemglitch, A coupl years back I bought binoculars with the sole (soul?) purpose of watching birds. Seven years ago I didn’t give a shit.
jwiggler, 
It’s your sole soul purpose.
systemglitch, Lol that did not help! I’m going to have to look that up later.
psud, You were right the first time. Sole means only; soul is a religious concept; sole means the bottom of your shoe: sole is a fish
systemglitch, Thank you for the clarity :)
Mouselemming, Just keep in mind that the one with U is the one that’s YOU.
Concepts like “soul music” work fine with this, because they are about an untameable essence of the self.
But if I’ve forgotten an exception, do please point it out, dear lemmings.
RampantParanoia2365, Me too. I live in an area now with hawks, ravens, and I can hear a Great Horned Owl at night, but never been able to spot it. These all make me inordinately excited.
BigilusDickilus, Cardinals are great, that are really pretty birds that are common enough that you can probably spot one daily in most parts of the US is you take a walk.
Muscar, Apparently I was born old.
murtaza64, Look, Raymond: a yellow-crested warbler.
noseatbelt, Not excited enough. They may be common, but they’re still birds.
JetpackJackson, Yup can confirm, it’s already got me lol
willsenior, I’m partial to the tufted titmouse

variants, What is there to do it’s mission accomplished
