Unless a bird is already a famous mascot, a symbol of freedom or well-known for having a particular trait, I would comfortably guess that we have no idea what 90% of the bird species flying above us are. There is an estimated 10,000 different species of birds around the world and nearly 1,200 in the United States alone. Mexico and Canada have roughly the same amount of different species as well who are migratory. There are so many different birds flying over us every day and were too busy to notice. Lisa, who goes by the name Ostdrossel on her social media, is an exception and pays very close attention to the differences in birds. When I say close attention, I mean really close attention. She has set up a camera in her yard and sets out different types of food to attract different birds. The camera has a motion sensor so all she has to do is set out some food and wait. She can see up to 7,000 photos a day from the exciting bird activity. Here are some of the most amazing shots she has captured so far. They are incredible.
1. The camera she uses is very simple yet surprisingly effective.
