bird identification
Naming feathered creatures
Bird identification is the practice of recognizing bird species by their physical features, songs, behaviors, or habitats.
Birders develop identification skills through field guides, apps, and experience: I'm still working on warbler identification.
The term often appears in compound form: a bird identification guide, bird identification by song.
