A community for people who like birds, birdwatching and birding in general!

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.

Thanks for this.

There might be several things spawned from the initial upload and kept around. If i click on this post, initially im shown a square thumbnail, a ~20kb .webp file. If i click on the image, it shows me another .webp which is a bigger file and it doesnt fully show on the screen.

Clicking a third time opens up a .jpg for me, as best as i can tell its the original upload.

Maybe whats served depends on the view or app each person is using.. It might be further complicated if the server knows whether the person is viewing on a mobile device and try and serve lower resolution. . But i try and upload at atleast 1920x1080.

Thank you, this would literally never have occurred to me otherwise. I have really bad eyesight, too, so full screening pictures intentionally might make an accessibility difference
