This makes it easier to spot particularly diverse groups. For example, I know I have a good array of woodpeckers (4 species in family Picidae), but not knowing the bird families well, I was a bit surprised to realize they were rivaled by 4 species of orioles & blackbirds (family Icteridae) and 4 species of finches (family Fringillidae) and outnumbered by sparrows & co.
