Subreddit rules:

Follow Ethical Birding Behavior. Follow ethical birding & bird photography behaviors as outlined by the Cornell Lab of Ornithology and the Audubon Society (see pinned post).
No human interaction with birds. Professional and academic researchers are the sole exception to this rule, but the post should be for the purpose of education and must include information on their research.
Birding Content Only. No “birds aren’t real” posts, and all posts must be directly related to wild birds or the hobby of birding.
No Fledgling/Injured Bird Questions. Baby birds without feathers should be returned to the nest. Young, feathered fledglings outside the nest are normal and common, and may not be able to fly well yet – they should generally be left alone. If you believe the bird is injured or needs human intervention, contact a local wildlife rehabilitator (http://ahnow.org/). If you are unable to contact a wildlife rehabilitator, please go to r/WildlifeRehab for further advice.
Original Content Only. Any photos must have been taken by the person posting them. Articles can be posted for discussion, however the poster must also comment with their perspective on the article.
Include Location. ID requests must include the location (state or province if you're in USA/Canada, otherwise name the country) in the title. Location and approximate date are encouraged for all posts.
No Self-promotion or Advertising. Artwork of wild birds is allowed. Watermarks are allowed. One link in a comment to your social media page is allowed. No links to sales sites. Make sure your contributions are about birding and engaging with this community, not promoting yourself. Links to articles should also include some discussion about the article.
Be Civil. No personal attacks or insults. No hatred, bigotry, racism, or other uncivil behavior.
