How do I identify a bird I do not know?

📎 More on this: Bird stories and sightings on TravelOnTales
Note size compared with a familiar bird, beak shape, colours, behaviour and where you saw it. Take a photo if you can. A field guide or a bird app helps you narrow it down. Local birding groups are happy to help when you share a clear picture.
Look first at shape and size, then the beak and legs, then colours. Listen to the call and record a short clip if possible. Do not rely on one feature, because light can change colours.
