Just posting this in the hopes it removes all the email I’ve been getting!

Hi all! I’m relatively new to bird watching. I went a handful of times to Valley Forge park to hike with a wonderful bird watching group. They were so knowledgeable. Before I even spotted it, they had various birds identified and zoomed in on the scope! I had a hard time seeing the birds from a far distance. What I really want is to identify by sound. Then I can google the bird and know what I should be looking for.  Anyone else feel this as a viable strategy? I’ve relocated since, so I will no longer be joining that group. I’ll see what’s local to me. Stay healthy, Tess
