Some birds are easy to see. Others
are secretive and hard to find. Do
you know a bird species that only
comes out at night? Good bird
watchers look for many different
clues to learn if a bird lives in the area. They listen for songs and calls.
They look for nests, tracks, pellets or
droppings. Keep your eyes and ears
open and you may see, hear or find
evidence of all the birds on this list.
Circle the musical notes if you
hear the bird sing or call.
Circle the nest if you see any
signs of the bird.
Circle the binoculars if you
see the bird.
