Swann Holloway loves to be outdoors and experience nature in Lost Records: Bloom & Rage. Before meeting her friends in the summer of 1995, her only companions were her own pets and the surrounding animals in the world.
One of her favorite things to do is capture footage of the local scenery and wildlife with her camcorder that she got for her 16th birthday. We see this prevalent in the many memoir collections that feature nature, including the Birds! Memoir. Swann uses this memoir to compile shots of all the feathered friends in and around her little slice of Velvet Cove.
The initial shot for the Birds! collection will be caught as part of the main story progression in Chapter 3, in Swann’s bedroom. To complete the memoir, you will need 15 total recordings of different bird species, including the cardinal that starts it all.
Throughout the chapters you may come across duplicates of many of the birds, especially the geese. But there are a few birds, like the goldfinch or the redheaded woodpecker, that’ll you’ll only see once.
However, even if you miss a shot, you always have the option to replay a scene in Collectible mode to gather any footage you missed.
