①As we all know, activities like listening to the birds or taking a walk in the park are good for our health. But someone thinks birdwatching is often boring.
②In fact, a study published in 2024 shows that even half an hour of birdwatching can make us happier, healthier and help us get close to nature. Even hearing birds indoors through an open window can change our bad feelings. The study also shows that it is better to watch birds than to take a walk.
③So why is birdwatching so good for us? Biophilia(亲生物性) could be a big part of it. It means that humans have a good relationship with nature—some would think that we should see ourselves as part of nature—so being in nature makes us feel well. But biodiversity(生物多样性) is important too. The study shows that biodiversity is a natural medicine for humans that can help us relax and do more activities.
④Another reason is that after going birdwatching, we can get happy and know a lot about birds. The study also shows that noticing wildlife in nature can make us get closer to nature and learn more about it. So birdwatching can make us feel happy.
⑤So, take your binoculars and walk into nature for birdwatching to help you relax and be happy. Enjoy every moment and have fun.
