#7 of 31 Days to Better Birding and Conservation
Kenn Kaufman, great birder and guide
Going birding alone is wonderfully relaxing and rewarding but sometimes going with a true expert (even if you are one yourself) is also extremely rewarding. A guided field trip offers the added benefits of being with someone that knows the area birds and added sets of eyes for finding birds.
So if you want to learn a bit more about birds, or just want to be around other birders, go on that next guided hike provided by your local bird club.
