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 am currently on holidays in spain and there were a lot of parakeets around, also tons of collared doves who i'd guess outnumber the feral pidgeons there. Pretty cool

Today while cycling i saw a flamboyant hoopoe, which i recognized because i saw it on here. I was hyped. This is my first time somewhat far away from home since i started watching birds and it's amazing to see what's going on here. The birds are going off!

Yeah, when i saw that flamboyant hoopoe i was immediately thinking of you all, haha.

I also really enjoy the birds i know in different setting, like the beach blackbird or hearing the mountain wood pigeon (no 'd') coo.
