Second in a series of practical guides to birdwatching and learning about birds, aimed at both the beginner and people who want to learn more.

Bill's first encounter with birds was when he was about seven years old. He found a dunnock's nest with five eggs in - he took one, put it in a matchbox and carefully put it in his back pocket. He then forgot about it, and later, when jumping over a log, crushed it. Egg-collecting is no longer legal, but it did teach him a lesson or two - it got him hooked on birds and taught him the value of patience.
