- Start birdwatching early in the morning
- Do your birding close to home
- Turn all activities into birding: walks, days at the beach, drives to the shops, while you are gardening
- Head to the water where birds are plentiful
- Choose birdwatching destinations wisely, variety in landscapes/ habitats available means different birds
- Avoid crowded spots
- Consider the Season, summer is for open water and forests, winter for drier areas
