Welcome to /c/birding, a community for people who like birds, birdwatching and birding in general! Feel free to post your birding photos or just photos of birds you found in general, but please follow the rules as outlined below.
This should go without saying, but please be nice to one another. No petty insults, no bigotry, no harassment, hate speech,nothing of that sort! Depending on the severity, you'll either only get your comment removed and a warning or your comment will be removed and you will be banned from /c/birding.
This is a community for posting content of birds, nothing else. Please keep the posts related to birding or birds in general.
When posting photos or videos that you did not take, please always credit the original photographer! Link to the original post on social media as well, if there is one.
Absolutely no AI-generated content is allowed! I know it has become quite difficult to tell whether or not something is AI-generated or not, but please make sure that whatever you post is not AI-generated. If it is, your post will be removed. If you continously post AI-generated content, you'll be banned from /c/birding (but it's obviously okay if you post AI-generated stuff once or twice without knowing you did so).
Please provide rough information location, if possible. This is a more loosely-enforced rule, especially because it is sometimes not possible to provide a location. But if you post a photo you took yourself, please provide a rough location and date of the sighting.
Just found out that this little bitch bird is killing all the other small birds that lived for years on the trees next to our house.
I noticed lately that the usual birds sounds are gone for the past three weeks, it appears this fucker is killing them
It appears to be an Eurasian Jay.

Are you sure, it doesn’t look like the one in the links.
It has a weird strong looking beak, and it’s not a small size bird.
Also how to make it stop killing other small singing birds.
I mean you kinda just gotta let nature take it's course. We can't play god all the time. Birds gonna kill other birds 🤷♂️
Man those singing birds have been living on those trees for more than 20 years, this fucker came and start killing them and now (aside from no more bird singing) i have noticed also some strange bugs on my windows small flies and mosquitoes (dont know if its related)
This bitch bird is an occupier - i think.
I think they’re right, if you scroll down to the photo of the G. g. atricapillus subspecies it looks very similar, and it’s local to your area.
Corvids like jays will just eat nestlings (along with many other small things like bugs and mice), they have to eat and feed their own young as well. There’s not really anything that can or should be done to stop them; the songbirds will be back, they’ll come back for whatever attracted them in the first place.
He killed this little prince that lives on our lemon tree.
I do hate him
He occupied their home (they lived there for 20 years) but also killed them 😢
Everyday i see his shadows on the those trees, he claims that area now. I hate it
Its not his home, i want to kick it out.
