The area where she moved has a wide variety of birds, and some of the species she would see were Cardinals, Redbreasted Nuthatches, Blue Jays and so many more. These different kinds of birds inspired her to observe, study and get to know them, so she decided to dedicate a Tumblr solely to her little friends. In order to do this, she needed something that would allow her to get close and personal without scaring them off.
