From 2015 to 2018, Bird Watcher's Digest successfully gathered the world of birding in once place with the American Birding Expo. Now we’re ready to do it again! The Re•Think Birding Travel Expo will have the same great vibes and experiences, but this time we’re going virtual. We're joining forces with the Re•Think Marketing Team in pursuit of a shared global mission: To help birding tourism recover in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic. The Re•Think Birding Travel Expo will be powerful, productive, and positive for sponsors, exhibitors, and attendees alike.

What bird is that? Consult our bird identification guide to ID mystery birds in the backyard and beyond. We have photos, song recordings, in-depth entries, and more to help bird watchers correctly identify the birds they spot.

How do you make your international birding trip a success? Retired adventure travel agent Marci Madsen Fuller tells you how.

Aside from being an author, artist, and columnist well-known to Bird Watcher's Digest and Watching Backyard Birds readers alike, Julie Zickefoose is also a licensed wildlife rehabilitator with a wealth of experience in caring for injured birds. If you encounter a nestling or fledgling outside the nest, learn how to assess if the bird is in danger—and whether it's wise to intervene—and if so, what to do.

Why become a birder? Young birders Corey Husic and Blake Campbell will give you ten reasons to try out this great hobby.
