You can show me a picture of a bird or leaf a dozen times, I won’t remember enough to tell it from other birds and trees. You show me a specific model car or motorcycle once and I can probably remember it forever.
I wonder if bird-brained people have the same experience traveling, doing a double-take every time they see something that don’t exist back home.
Well, there’s also apps you can use to scan a leaf and others to scan a recording of a bird song and it’ll tell you what it is with some accuracy. Combine this with a field manual (paper or digital) and you’ll learn it over time.
Try two dozen times then. And stop talking yourself out of it. If I can learn to identify cars when I once was so absolutely indifferent to them, you can do birds trees.
You’re the one standing in the way of yourself here.
