Birding

Birding Enthusiasts

Birding enthusiasts are birders who enjoy watching birds, however, it is not their primary goal for travel. They enjoy seeing other wildlife and taking part in cultural and social activities as well. These birders tend to book their travels through tour operators. Their packaged holidays often include tours to watch other wildlife, and they require some encouragement to undertake birding activities.

Twitchers

These are the people who have their own lifers (targets). These birders are sustainably aware and care about the conservation of birds. On average, enthusiastic and twitchers birders are 55 years old, but some birdwatchers from Gen Y and Gen Z fall within these categories too. Twitchers usually are professional birders who would have their own photography equipment to take top quality pictures of the birds on their lifers.
