Bird-watching,or "birding",is a very popular hobby these days,and it\’s a great way of getting outside with nature.So how can you get started?
What you need
When you start,a good field guide （野外指南） will help you learn birds,or you might want to use an app on your phone.And you will probably need a pair of binoculars（双筒望远镜）.
Where to go
You can start bird-watching just in your garden or streets or in a park.But if you want to see different kinds of birds,it is a good idea to visit a wetland.Wetlands are good places for birds because there is lots of food and water for them.
How to get started
It\’s always best to look for birds in the early morning or late afternoon,because this is when they are most active.When you see a bird,you can make some notes about its colour or shape.Is it alone or in a group?What is it eating?How does it fly?Then check your field guide or app.
What to remember
Be very quiet when you are watching birds,and don\’t wear brightly-coloured （色彩鲜艳的）clothes that may frighten them.Never go too close to a bird when it is making a nest or feeding the young.
