There is a sport that requires years of training, careful planning and strategy plus physical endurance that you won't see at the Commonwealth Games. It's the World Series of Birding. Every year, teams gather to try to identify the greatest number of bird species in a 24 hour period, all within the State of New Jersey in America. Armed with binoculars, cameras and clipboards, teams with names like Meet the Flockers and One Wren to Rule Them all, earn points for each different bird they can spot. We'll talk to captain Dan Poalillo of the former World Series winners, Team Avian Avarice.
You can follow them on instagram or on twitter.
