I am brand new to bird watching. Looking through my binoculars, saw a robin, sparrow, and blue jay this morning. Just installed a hummingbird feeder in my yard, saw one for the first time at the feeder a few minutes ago. I’m using the Merlin app to identify birds by their sound when walking through a nearby forest preserve— having a hard time seeing them, though. Never knew we had such a variety of birds so close by!
