I applaud your resolve to limit yourself to just waiting for the rarities to come to you (and do they ever!). I've been practicing this for the past couple of years and find I don't miss the running around, wasting fossil fuel, etc. I feel less guilty even it my contribution is of minimal significance. In the past several weeks I've seen a Townsend's Solitaire and an American Goldfinch at our place. Birds I'd surely have missed if I hadn't been home.

Yes! Enjoying by observing is so much better than chasing another number just for the sake of a number
