The lock down has encouraged many a birder to take more of an interest in different dimensions of identifying birds. Being limited to one’s home encouraged me to work on a goal I set to identify garden birds by sound. Often, one does not have binoculars ready on hand and sight can be challenging depending on the angle of light. Mostly, birds move rapidly so visual identification has limitations. I collated several Youtube videos by Villiers Steyn, a professional photographer and safari guide (aka The Safari Expert) and a wonderful quiz by another avid birder and blogger, Keanu Canto. Good luck in identifying the bird calls.
