I find this to be true, I consider birding a form of mindfulness, focusing on the present, listening for birds and looking for birds really helps me be in the moment and not lost in my head

I’m not a birder. I just like looking at birds.
have a pair of 8x30’s on my desk and regularly pick them up throughout the day if something catches my eye or I hear a kerfuffle which usually involves a peregrine/Kite/Buzzard. Can’t think of a better way to switch off for a few mins during the day.
