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.

  1. 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.

  2. This is a community for posting content of birds, nothing else. Please keep the posts related to birding or birds in general.

  3. 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.

  4. 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).

  5. 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.

Sarralbe (4 386 inhabitants) in a small town in the north-east of France. This is a live video feed of one the stork nests on Sarralbe’s city hall. A camera has been filming this place since about 8 years ago (not sure) thanks to local stork passionate Dominique Klein.

The two ~~local celebrities~~ storks that we see on video, nicknamed Maurice and Mélodie, are probably the same individuals that nested here during the previous years, but it’s impossible to be sure, since they’re not wearing a leg band. Right now, there are six eggs in the nest^†^, and we should be able to see the storklets hatch and grow as time passes.


† One of their parents is arranging them neatly as I’m typing this; ah, and now it’s sitting on them again.

I’d love to get links for similar video feeds around the world. If you know of a good one, please share it with me!
