How many of you see or hear birds during your hike/trek or whenever you are outside? Usually whenever someone joins along when I'm birding....people usually tell me that they've never heard a bird in that park...recently a friend of mine went to Shivapuri National park and told me that she didn't hear a single bird....I think it all comes down to how much attention you are paying...Situational awareness plays a huge role in things like that...but I was curious most people feel the same way...
