Watching Wild Birds Is Very Fascinating And A Great Stress Reliever.
For centuries humans have been fascinated with watching wild birds. Regardless of species, birds in the wild have many characteristics that have kept us mesmerized with their antics, and likely will for years to come. Many people watch birds in their natural habitats for a hobby, while others are actual researchers in the field that are lucky enough to get paid to watch them.
Many of the bird lovers of the world are not fortunate in location, so are unable to get close enough to some of the rarest and most beautiful of the species, this is where documentaries come in handy. There are companies that actually go out into the wild of all locations to film and document these wild birds in their natural settings, and are able to catch some of the most fascinating subjects while these birds are at work, and at play. The mating seasons are a phenomenal time to be out filming birds, many of the birds of the wild are absolutely amazing during this season.
Bird lovers go crazy over watching these fascinating birds mate because they display their feathers in frumpy manners, and some are so articulate with their methods that not many other animals can compare to them. Though it may sound strange to want to watch birds mate, there really are some interesting aspects to birds that will otherwise never be witnessed if not done so during this season. Birds tend to go all out and sing the most beautiful and intriguing songs, dance some of the most peculiar dances, and put on fashion shows that would make the most gorgeous runway models jealous but only during mating season.
Though watching birds can be done in many of our own backyards, there is something fascinating about watching birds from other countries, such as those that are in tropical zones. These birds are brilliant specimens that most common backyard birds simply can not compete with when it comes to colors and personalities. These birds are highly known for their beautiful feathers of the most brilliant colorings, many of them are a mixture of several striking colors, while others are colored in a few basic colors. None of the tropical birds can be considered ordinary however, not by any means.
For years man has sought after the most unique and rarest of the species and has documented them for the rest of the world to be able to bear witness to some of the most awesome animal species known to man, the wild bird. Watching wild birds is easy, especially if the individual takes the time to research local birds and has a basic knowledge of wild bird identification. Watching birds is not only gratifying, but is also a great stress reliever that many have grown very fond of.

About the Author
My Name is Mike Nunnery. I am a 62 year young retiree that loves birds. I recently retired from Emergency Management in the great state of Texas. I helped people that were affected by the results and aftermath of fires, floods and Hurricanes. Much of my time was spent in the out of doors either getting people out of harms way or helping them to restore their losses thru the insurance companys.
Since I found myself out side in all sorts of weather I could not help but notice all of the many variety's of wild and domestic birds all over the state of Texas as well as many other states. So from all my years (over 30) of watching and studying birds of all walks of life I became a die hard "Birder".
I have now decided that being able to write about many of my experiences while birding and sharing with anyone that has a simular love of birds like I do would not only be a pleasure to me but a plus to anyone that wants to learn first hand about how to go about observing, Identifying and attracting wild birds in your given local area or how to enjoy them when you are camping , hiking, biking, boating or anywhere in the outdoors.
I do hope you will enjoy my articles and tell your friends to look my site up on the web for their reading enjoyment. You might me and "Old Birder" like me or a "Newbie Birder" it dosen't matter. Just get out side and enjoy the pleasant surrounding while the wild birds fly about you and sing their songs of love to the world.
