BIRDWATCHING

If you really want to be a professional
bird photographer or bird watcher,
then your work must be concerned
with a single word, ‘Conservation’.
Conservation of wildlife should be
the one and only focus of your work.
Never try to manipulate normal
surrounding natural environment
of wildlife for ‘prefect shots’. Make
people aware about birds, wildlife,
nature by your photographs and
works; make locals aware by your
experiences and knowledge. If you

could influence even a single person
to become a wildlife conservationist,
then you can proudly call yourself
a professional bird watcher or a
wildlife photographer.
