What makes it fun
Follow the birdsong
Listen for a bird, track it down, then photograph it with your phone to add it to your wildlife journal. Even before you spot it, listening becomes part of exploring the island.
Detours that help the island
While looking for wildlife, you can pick up litter and repair birdhouses. You can even tend to birdhouses outside a specific task, turning a detour into a way to care for the island.
