    Thank you for the tips and tricks taught in this video. This information is very helpful for those that are new or moderately invested in birdwatching. We used both apps mentioned, and two out of the grouping of books that you showed have been immensely helpful, especially with finches and warblers. I look forward to sharing this with my local Audubon newbies.
