Ruby 1 is trying to get her friend, Tony, to go bird-watching with her.
R: You really should get some exercise, Tony. Why don't you come bird-watching with me this weekend?
T: That sounds boring. What's bird-watching all about anyway?
R: Bird watchers study birds in their natural surroundings. It's a great hobby.
T: What's the fun in that?
R: We enjoy listening to different birds sing, looking at them fly and watching how they behave.
T: What else?
R: Well, it's also relaxing to be around nature. And walking in the mountains helps keep you fit.
