People don’t become good at bird identification by being right all the time

People send me photos, hoping I can identify a strange bird they’ve just seen. I enjoy doing it. But I also secretly cringe. A bird in the wild gives all sorts of clues to its identity. You can see the field marks as it moves around. You can note how it acts, where it sits, what it’s feeding on, how it behaves around other birds and even what it sounds like.
