How to find rare birds

Podcast door Niels Goulem

Looking for rare birds really is an amazing and fun way of spending your time. But it's also a tricky one, as many try but few actually succeed in finding them. Some time ago, as I was doing bushes at the coast in Belgium, I had an epiphany. I thought to myself: "Niels, you clearly suck at this. Now's the time to face it". So instead of blindly keeping on, I decided to sit down and talk with the people who are actually good at it and who have made a habit of finding a shitload of rare birds, year after year. Of course, it was also a good excuse to simply sit together and talk about birds.

In this second episode, we sit together with Kenny, another one of the Belgian titans. Kenny is truly a purebred birder and rarity finder, and I must say I got hugely inspired from his appearance in the podcast. Don't be fooled by his apparent humility when he speaks, in the one hour we shared together, I can already feel he turned me into a better birder than the one I was before. Also, I had a lot of fun noticing the obvious similarities and striking differences between Johan's answers to our questions and Kenny's. For us Belgian birders, I can say we're very lucky to have them both birding together in the same country. One big similarity between the two has a name, and that name was Gunther Vergauwen. Enjoy!!
