yes but he won't be able pick out any interesting nuggets about species or behaviours off the cuff as someone who knows about these things would. It would just be and here are the grey wagtails.....instead of and here are the grey wagtails, many people open their bird book and think that they must be yellow wagtail because of the lovely flush of yellow on them, but yellow wagtails tend to be farmland birds and have a lovely olive yellow back as well as a yellow tummy......
If you have a knowledgeable person there then you have an opportunity to learn beyond what someone has thought to script - even if they are just little bits.
