I think I have become a bird watcher.
I’ve been recording what I find when I’m at the commune (I joined one on the south coast about a year ago, but have been coming here for years with friends). Today I saw a bird that could have been either a Pied Cormorant, or a Little Pied Cormorant, but I didn’t get close enough to see the colour of its legs. So I cannot record anything and shall have to go look for it again tomorrow.
What have I done? Do not install bird spotting apps if you have a tendency to competitive gaming.
@emmadavidson Congratulations on finding a source of endless delight. I can share that my two unexpected favourites for songs are the grey shrikethrush and singing honeyeater. I have also personally struggled with the pied/little pied cormorant dilemma and so I can understand the stress. Welcome to an amazing part of reality! #birds #australianbirds #nature
