Re: Bird Nest Photos

Stu

As a forum based web site we have a responsibility to follow the code of conduct for photographing nests. Quite a few people here have also explained the reasons why we shouldn't be doing nest photography. I don't know of any other wildlife type forum that does allow this type of photography, so why are we considering it.

Personally I wouldn't even consider posting such photos in this forum but if you still want to check out the validity of doing so, rather than looking around various web sites to see what they do, why don't you go straight to the horses mouth and ask the experts at the RSPB what their thoughts are on the subject.

You could also poll the members on what their thoughts are but on looking at this thread alone I would say that it would be a resounding no.

John
