In this lecture, illustrated with photos, drawings, and a few tests, David Sibley talks about his own experiences in the MIS-identification of birds.
Sibley, a North-American ornithologist and illustrator, will explain us how mistakes will always be a part of birding, but we can limit mistakes by being alert for them.
Understanding how we perceive the world around us, and how our brains both help and hinder our efforts at bird identification, can help us reduce (or at least accept) our mistakes.
