## Resource

Last week, we kicked off this conversation with Cameron Blair, and if you listened to Part 1, you’ll know just how good that was. In this episode, we pick up where we left off and go even deeper. We continue unpacking Cameron’s thinking around birding, his approach to cisticolas, and how to move from guessing to actually understanding what you are looking at in the field. There is a lot of practical value in this episode, especially if you want to grow in confidence with tricky groups like cisticolas. And as the conversation unfolds, you will hear more of the curiosity and thought process that makes Cameron such an interesting birder to learn from. If you enjoyed Part 1, this is a great follow on. Let’s get back into the conversation with Cameron.
