Identify one plant or bird near you

Look closely at a living thing nearby and find out its name.

Why it helps

Naming what you see turns a blur into familiar neighbours. It trains observation and curiosity.

How to do it

1. Notice a plant or bird and note its features.
2. Use a guide to find its name.
3. Write one fact about it.

Make it easier

Just look closely at one leaf.

Make it harder

Identify three in one walk.

Do not eat plants or berries based on identification alone.
