    "And so, it’s official: bird-watching is the new must-have string to the millennial’s bow. Once regarded as the preserve of middle-aged men wearing complementary shades of olive and beige, a nationwide survey of Britain’s hobbies and interests has discovered that 32 per cent of men aged between 16 to 25 have been birding."
    I guess you've never been to England

      It is right to think of H when thinking about birds, since H was established and is maintained for the birds, deer are simply a by-product. Birders represent the greatest number of organized volunteers at the refuge. In fact, dedicated non-hunters are some of the longest serving volunteers on the refuge...that also understand the value the managed harvests represent. So please, as a resident and a outdoorsman...please show the same respect that would if you were a guest at friends ranch around their family. We're all there for the love of the outdoors, be a positive example.

        I love birdwatching. I have a book and I check them off as I see them. Can't wait to check off Ivory Billed Woodpecker

          Just had to look that one up. Looks just like a Pileated Woodpecker, which is one of my favorite birds.

            I look at birds while I'm sitting in my treestand. Guess I'm a bird watcher to.

              Yeah there a lot of back and forth on whether or not it is now extinct at this point. So somewhat some poor attempt at humor in my comment.

                That ones been check off the list, the sighting in Arkansas was bogus. Last confirmed sighting was in 1944.

                    I watch birds when I am hunting or when I am out and about.

                    Don't really see anything wrong with bird watching or bird watchers for that matter

                      One of the things I miss about not getting to hunt our place we had out West any longer... There were more different kinds of birds on that place than anywhere else I've ever hunted... Saw some strange ones over the years... probably strangest was parakeet and coolest was the Green Jays... Once saw a snow goose flying along the river (Rio Grande)... He for sure was lost! Widest variety of ducks there that I ever saw... First duck with a bow was a drake wood duck!! In WEST TEXAS! I'd have never guessed there would have been woodies out there!
