   • 2005, Sean Dooley, The Big Twitch, Sydney: Allen and Unwin, page 25:

     Tell a birder that you are trying to break a birdwatching record and their first question will be something like `Where do you plan to get Buff-breasted Button-quail?' Confide to a non-birder and they invariably ask, `How can you prove it?'

   • 2009 March 17, Liz Galst, “On Business, but Checking Out the Local Airborne Fauna”, in New York Times‎^[1]:

     Travel to out-of-the-way places that many nonbirders find unappealing can be especially attractive to those who pack binoculars and field guides in their carry-on luggage.
