How to write your own notes on bird watching?

Video, photos and other recording tools are very popular now. Do you remember the feeling of opening your notes?

Try to make a collection of bird watching notes, what a wonderful memory.

Taking notes on bird watching is actually very simple. We can make an electronic version or a paper version.

I am a photographer myself, and I always take my camera with me when I watch birds. Record the birds I saw with a camera. At the same time, I will record the local geographical location with my mobile phone. Then turn on the recording and record how I observed the bird and what state it was at that time. So every time I open it, I can recall the situation at that time and share it with others very easily.

I am used to making my bird-watching notebook into an electronic document, which is more environmentally friendly and easier to organize. Next, I will share an article, my birdwatching diary, which you can also refer to.

In fact, there is no fixed format for bird watching notes. We can record the species and shapes of birds. The state of our observation. We can also write down how we feel when we see birds. At the same time, you can consult some books. Drawing on the information in it, the accuracy of our bird information will definitely be further improved.

Before writing a bird-watching diary, you must be fully prepared. For example, collecting local bird advice. Take the season as an example. Beijing lies on the eastern line of bird migration. The best observation time of migratory birds is generally from March to April, and the best ornamental birds are herons, wild ducks and cranes.

In addition to the local bird information, we should also do a good job in investigating the terrain and time of bird watching. Take Nansha Wetland in our city as an example. There are many places suitable for light birds, but not every bird-watching spot will always have fish.

The first time I went to Nansha wetland to watch birds, I lost my mind. I thought I should be able to record a lot of birds when I first went to the holy place of Bird Friends Gate. But the time is wrong and the place is not chosen. So I only saw some sparse egrets. Later, after doing my homework, I realized that Fisherman's Wharf near Nansha Wetland is the best place to watch birds. Its hydrophilic platform faces a tidal flat, and a large number of birds will feed at low tide. Many kinds of birds were observed this time, and several kinds were selected.

Bird-watching diaries emphasize a truth, so when writing, you must first find reference materials. Of course, it is best to find some friends who like bird watching. People in the same circle can communicate with each other and improve their diaries.
