Aoi S asked:

Recently, I just enjoy watching birds in national parks. I plan to have a telescope for bird-watching, a practical and a small one, so I can put it in my bag when walking across the national park. Please give me some advice to buy the kind of telescope (the good one), e.g. its name, size, etc, I really don’t know, cause I’m only a beginner in bird-watching. Thank you.

POSITRON asked:

We observe that bird watching is a great hobby in West Europe and U.S and people watch silently for hours together thru binoculars and also video the childish antics,food habits,nesting activities etc of birds and also record their musical sounds, notes and chirpings. Not that we of the east are averse to such bird watching.City folks and students everywhere are showing increasing interest in this hobby.It provides a great escape from the miserable life in gas pollution and sound pollution filled concrete jungles of the cities. it also gives a spiritual satisfaction just as felt by wordsworth in his sojourns in rural sorroundings in Lake Districts.I just want to know the level of popularity of the hobby in the West.

Fuzzy Wuzzy asked:

Is there a name for this phobia?

I admire beautiful birds in the wild, but can not live with the thought of one of them landing on me or flapping around me.

I can not walk through avaries, and found a similar feeling when I walked through the butterfly house at the zoo. I freaked out when a butterfly landed on me.

Anyone else like me or am I a freak? LOL
LOL - I knew that someone would pick up and call me a freak!

Why don’t you hear birds singing as much, in the north, in wintertime?

Messdeck Annie asked:

In the summertime, at dawn, the birds singing is so beautiful and really loud and raucous. Most of the same birds live here in the wintertime (I am in Canada) at our feeders but you don’t hear the same chorus at dawn as in the summertime. Why are they so much quieter in winter?
