BirdWatch Explorer was founded in 2018 by a group of passionate ornithologists and bird watching enthusiasts who wanted to share their knowledge and love for birds with the world.
What started as a small blog has grown into a thriving community of bird lovers from across the globe, united by our fascination with avian life and commitment to bird conservation.
Our mission is to inspire people to appreciate the beauty and diversity of birds, promote sustainable bird watching practices, and contribute to global bird conservation efforts.
