Plain-backed Pipit by Faansie Peacock

“I once had a sparrow alight upon my shoulder for a moment…and I felt that I was more distinguished by that circumstance than I should have been by any epaulet I could have worn.”

HENRY DAVID THOREAU
author, poet & philosopher

“If you bird, you
will see stuff.”

THE ORACLE
birder

“Use what talents you possess: the woods would be very silent if no birds sang there except those that sang best.”

HENRY VAN DYKE
American author

“God loved the birds and invented trees. Man loved the birds and invented cages.”

JACQUES DEVAL
Afin de vivre bel et bien

“Technically…we’re not supposed to be here”.

JASON KESSLER
Sh*t Birders Say

“Bird-watchers are tense, competitive, selfish, shifty, dishonest, distrusting and – above all else – envious. I know many who are generous, witty and delightful company – but they’re no fun!”

BILL ODDIE; Bill Oddie’s Little Black Bird Book

“I don’t go birding.
I AM birding!”

FAANSIE PEACOCK
birder

“To a person uninstructed in natural history, his countryside or seaside stroll is a walk through a galley filled with wonderful works of art, nine-tenths of which have their faces turned to the wall”.

THOMAS HUXLEY
English biologist

“One of the things that makes birding so exciting is that the birds are so mobile. You never know what you’ll see…you must be constantly alert, watching and listening all around.”

DAVID SIBLEY
Sibley’s Birding Basics

“Look out the window. See a bird. Enjoy it. Congratulations. You are now a bad birdwatcher.”

SIMON BARNES
How to be a bad birdwatcher

“A weird screechy howl, which rises in a nerve-shattering crescendo, to peter out like a cry of a lost soul falling into a bottomless pit.”

AUSTIN ROBERTS
Roberts’ Birds of
Southern Africa
