Birdwatching or birding is the observation and study of birds with the naked eye or through a visual enhancement device like binoculars. Birding often involves a significant auditory component, as many bird species are more readily detected and identified by ear than by eye. Most birdwatchers pursue this activity mainly for recreational or social reasons, unlike ornithologists, who engage in the study of birds using more formal scientific methods.

Who can I meet in Oregon to go "birding" with?
Q. I have my spotting scope.

A. Visit one of the oldest and best organized Audubon societies around, the Portland Audubon Society. They are located in NW Portland, next to Forest Park where they have their own sanctuary, frequent meetings, and people going in and out every day who are interested in birding.

How can I keep birds away from our window air conditioners?
Q. It seems every year when we put in the window A/C units, the birds arrive! They hang around the units and all I hear all day is chirping and little bird feet on metal. I hate birds, they are filthy and I would NEVER have a bird in my home as a pet, oh the thought makes me shudder! I just want them to go away, how can I do it without harming them, I dont like birds but posion or any method which could hurt or kill them is out of the question. Can you help?
Asked by HLBellevino - Sat May 19 12:11:56 2007 - - 4 Answers - 1 Comments

A. Most lawn and garden shops will have a plastic or inflatable owl that you can put near the A/C units. That will scare the birds away.

What species of bird is good for a pet for a family who has little experience?
Q. My husband are interested in adding a bird to our family and we were wondering what spieces would be good for someone who has little experience with birds. We would like a bird we can handle safely. Also what would be a good source for learning more about pet bird species?

A. Finches are nice, low maintnance, easy to handle (if handled when first purchased) bird. I had one for a couple of years and then I had to give it away b/c we moved. A bugie is a little sweeter and easier to handle though still low maintanance. I would probably side with the bugie if you want a more friendly pet. Have fun!
