Welcome to /c/birding, a community for people who like birds, birdwatching and birding in general! Feel free to post your birding photos or just photos of birds you found in general, but please follow the rules as outlined below.

  1. This should go without saying, but please be nice to one another. No petty insults, no bigotry, no harassment, hate speech,nothing of that sort! Depending on the severity, you'll either only get your comment removed and a warning or your comment will be removed and you will be banned from /c/birding.

  2. This is a community for posting content of birds, nothing else. Please keep the posts related to birding or birds in general.

  3. When posting photos or videos that you did not take, please always credit the original photographer! Link to the original post on social media as well, if there is one.

  4. Absolutely no AI-generated content is allowed! I know it has become quite difficult to tell whether or not something is AI-generated or not, but please make sure that whatever you post is not AI-generated. If it is, your post will be removed. If you continously post AI-generated content, you'll be banned from /c/birding (but it's obviously okay if you post AI-generated stuff once or twice without knowing you did so).

  5. Please provide rough information location, if possible. This is a more loosely-enforced rule, especially because it is sometimes not possible to provide a location. But if you post a photo you took yourself, please provide a rough location and date of the sighting.

These guys usually soar quite a bit higher and are hard to photograph, but a combination of the clouds and the closer proximity gave a halfway decent shot.

I think I have the option to store images as raw, but I'm not sure what I'd do with them beyond that. Editing phone camera pictures is quite a bit beyond my experience, but capturing more color would be great.

That's a very nice phone camera! That, or I've an even poorer phone camera than I thought (on the grounds of having a full-body camera). You can probably find free apps for your phone that do simple RAW edits, but I can't offer any advice. Dedicated cameras tend to come with software of varying quality (Canon is quite good!).
