Is anyone familiar with the PC game: Snapshot Adventures: The Secret of Bird Island?
You take photos of animated birds in different real settings across the US. To fill your journal, one must be a perched photo and one must be a flying photo of the same bird. You get an assignment at each location and as you move from location to location, if you take more than one standing or flying, you pick the one you want to keep. Each shot gets a different point amount depending how good the game decides that each shot is. You can replay rounds multiple times. Also at each location you can pick an "accessory" to take with you like 3 different sizes of lens, a flash (for night shooting), birdseed (for feeding assignments), a bird caller (for singing assignments), a mirror (for preening assignments), a stopwatch (freezes the bird movement), etc. You also get more points (usually) if you get 2 birds in one shot. It's a good way to learn how to ID birds and to see birds in different types of habitat like the shore, deserts, forests, parks, cornfields, etc. In all instances, your assignments are magazine covers. There is a secondary game where you create a bird but I never do that one.
Homer, Alaska on the Homer Spit - 4.5 mile strip of land into Kachemak Bay
Driving down the Homer Spit I slowed and stopped to get a few pictures of this boat. An extra bonus was seeing a crew member still perched on the stern.
