Great bird photos!

Hi there! Thank you so much for uploading your amazing bird photos. It'd be wonderful to have watermark free replacements. Here is the information on watermarking and Commons, I do hope you'll take the time to review it and rest assured credit will be given where credit is due :) Thank you again!

Hi Fitzbabbler, for images of Turdoides bicolor please use Category:Turdoides bicolor. Please don't over-categorize images as here with Category:Animal, Category:Bird and Category:Passeridae and don't use categories that don't exist like Category:Foraging and Category:Babblers. For further information please study Commons:Categories. Kindly DO NOT watermark your images as this is discouraged according to policy. -- Ies (talk) 13:31, 16 September 2011 (UTC)
