Might not be a word you are familiar with
.
Twitchers are bird watchers
.They come in all shapes and sizes and are often very knowledgeable
.Often about a lot more than the behaviour and habits of birds
.Which brings me to one in particular
A friend of ours, James "The Birdman" who lives in Tanzania
.He is not only very informed about birds but knows a lot about insects, flora, and other aspects of nature as well
.As he says "It matters not whether we are considered bird-watchers or birders, ornithologists or bird-lovers, bird-spotters or rarity hunters, tickers, twitchers or listers
.Are there 'philosophical implications'?
.The gift of 'birding' has encouraged me to focus daily upon dynamic meditation; the interplay of the human mind and nature.
.Specifically to concentrate upon the way this interplay should enhance our life, both as humbled individuals and in the greatest groups".
.Have a look at his website and then his blog
.We hope you enjoy them
