I’ve never cared about birds before, but now I’m obsessed with spotting them. Is this a midlife thing, or am I just discovering a new hobby out of nowhere?

Many people discover new interests in midlife, and bird watching is a common one! This can be attributed to a greater appreciation for nature and a desire to slow down and connect with the environment. Bird watching is peaceful, meditative, and provides a sense of wonder, which can help counteract the stress and busyness of life. Midlife is also a time of self-reflection and exploring hobbies that bring joy. Embrace it—invest in a bird guidebook or binoculars, and you may find it’s one of the most rewarding hobbies you’ve ever tried.
