- Record what you see- The best way to remember all of the birds is to write it down. Write down the location, date, name of bird, and general description
- Watch the bird- The moment you look away from a bird you realize how many details you didn't notice that are necessary for proper identification. Study the bird for a while and make sure you know it well because you might not get a chance to look at it again.
- Listen for calls- Many birds have very distinct calls and songs that can be very important for identification.
- Be patient- Don't be centered on seeing a specific bird, just enjoy yourself and enjoy the birds.
