About The Casual Birder
Roberta Hill has been an amateur birder for
over 40 years but only the Casual Birder for
five years. She has written a series of small
booklets to help others in their journey to
enjoy birdwatching as a fellow amateur.
It was in New Zealand that Roberta fell in love
with birdwatching all over again.
She returned to Montreal, Canada, during the
pandemic in 2020 and moved into a high-rise
condo. Roberta continues in her journey of
learning more about being a birder taking
courses and studying from experts. However,
she desires to keep birdwatching a simple and
easy hobby that everyone can enjoy.
As a former educator, Roberta loves to
incorporate various learning styles and
activities to facilitate the learning process. She
particularly enjoys using colouringand
journaling to help broaden the educational
experience.
