A new study published in the Journal of Neuroscience suggests that birding can alter the brain's structure and function, potentially enhancing cognition even as you age.

These structural differences were associated with more accurate bird identification. The study suggests that birding may support brain health in older adults, although it does not prove that birding prevents cognitive decline.
