It is definitely not the only tool a serious birder should use, but, paired with a monocular and a traditional bird book? I am spotting 100x the birds I used to as a kid.
Side note, I am so excited that there is a vibrant birding community here! I have been interested in it since I was a young autistic boy. It’s amazing how fruitful of a hobby it can be when you can only afford a 60-year-old bird book from the thrift store. 😀
