Reply:There is no scientific name for a bird "watcher." A scientist who studies birds is called an ornithologist. Someone who enjoys watching birds, particularly at feeders, but is not a scientist is called a bird watcher (imagine that! :)) Someone who is very serious about watching and finding bird species and spends a lot of time and money doing so is called a birder (in the US) and a twitcher (in the UK).
Reply:100% it's an ornothologist
Reply:A birdwatcher is not necessarily an ornithologist. An ornithologist is a bird biologist or a bird scientist. A birdwatcher is simply that, or more commonly called "birders" or "twitchers" (in the UK).

Reply:An ornithologist is a bird enthusist. But if you strictly watch birds then it would be 'bird-watcher' or 'birder'.
