Feel free to share your photos and other birding-related content here. If a photo you post isn't yours, please credit the original creator! Additionally, it would be appreciated if the location of the sighting and a date were given when a photo or question is posted. You do not have to give the precise location, something like "Northern Idaho, June 2023" or even "North-Western US, June 2023" suffices.

I‘m relatively new to birding and don’t have a car (or a driving license) so my lifer count isn’t all that high yet.

I started almost exactly a year ago (around the end of June 2022) and am now at just under 110 lifers. Most of these were seen around my neighborhood or in nearby towns. There’s a few nice nature reserves that are somewhat easy to reach by train, bus and bicycle and I’m intending on going there a bit more frequently once I get my new bike!

How about you? Oh and I’m from Bielefeld, a city in North-Western Germany.

Really been at it since 2018. 1223 on the life list. Fortunate to be able to afford international trips for birding. Live in Indiana, USA. https://ebird.org/profile/MTA0NzE5MA
