On Saturday morning I along with 15 or so others, boarded a fishing boat. But we weren’t out for the fish. We were looking for seabirds.
“We’ll see a Cook’s petrel (黑脚圆尾鹱) today,” I predicted, feeling confident. Not that I had a good reason to be: only one Cook’s petrel has ever been officially recorded in these waters.
Twenty minutes later, a Cook’s petrel came just as I expected. Thrilled at its sudden appearance, we hurried to take photos and lowered our voice for fear that the bird should be frightened away. Within a minute, the bird was gone. It turned out to be one of the few highlights of an otherwise surprisingly quiet day, but I live for moments like this. For a few hours, I was in my happy place.
Along with music, birds have been what I am crazy about. It started when I was eight. Memories get vague here, and possibly unreliable, hut the first flash was a chance sighting of a kingfisher (翠鸟) on the Ovens river, a few meters from where my father actually was fishing. My interest in birds was aroused.
For me, watching birds-or birding, to use the more active verb—was and still is an escape and a harbor. Earlier this year, a study by University of Exeter found that it was associated with lower levels of anxiety and depression, conditions with which I am unfortunately all too familiar.
And yes, I’m a bird lover. I once flew to Perth to see Australia’s second red-legged water bird, only to find it had been eaten by a cat. That’s birding-things don’t always happen on cue like that Cook’s petrel. But it’s not about the numbers. Whether it’s on my block or out to sea, I prefer to think that I don’t find the birds; they find me: in that happy place.
