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.

I want my bathroom to be the the color of the blue around the eyes

Nothing made you interesting - these doves are just stupid as fuck.

This one looks like it has the >!"Bird is the word"!< song stuck on loop inside its head.

(Spoiler if you don't want an annoying earworm stuck in your head all week.)

It just two brain cells passing the word ‘bird’ between them

We've had a nesting pair on our sill this year and they are on their fourth set of eggs already, these guys do not mess around.

You’re being surveilled. Wonder what government watchlist you’re on?

I miss hearing these. Moved to the other side of the continent and a ways north, and they don't hang out here.

Did you take this one your camera phone? It’s super nice!

[–] kat_angstrom 2 points 5 months ago (1 children)

I did actually, yes!

My only regret is how filthy my window is.

It looks just fine, it’s a stunning pic and you should enter it into some kind of contest
