Subject: Using Bird Photos on the Maine Birds Facebook Page
My wife, the only one of us on Facebook, was showing me a discussion about identification of an immature icterid. Someone suggested an immature Brown-headed Cowbird and then someone else posted a nice photo of a juv cowbird. The only problem is that it was MY photo.
I have no problem with people using my images and with my permission, usually happily share them. It is however, important to ask permission before using them. Many of us work long and hard to get these images and despite the rumors, i don't bite. For identification or education purposes, i am always happy to share. Just ask permission first.
