People who have this kind of hobby are called trainspotters. Trainspotters watch trains and they write down the numbers of the trains in special notebooks. Birdwatching Birdwatching is a nice hobby for people who love nature. It means observing birds with or without binoculars or a telescope. Many birdwatchers record the songs of birds, too. Window shopping You can window shop without any money because you only look at shops’ windows. You don’t have to buy anything or enter a shop. You may look around and go to the next window. Autograph collecting Autograph collecting is collecting the signatures and autographs of famous people. You can collect letters, documents, books and signed photographs.
