www.BirdPhotos.com There are around 10,000 species of birds, grouped into 40 orders containing 229 families. View Database tree by order, family ( enhanced ) or genus. When you consider color differences in subspecies, males, females and immatures, and seasonal changes, as well as different behaviours and habitats, you can see there is no shortage of possible photos. Photos here are generally organized along scientific classifications (see the Species List and Gallery Album Tree) using IOC 9.1 naming. BirdPhotos.com tries to keep a balance between having only awesome photos and representing a reasonable number of species. Photos are being added and replaced daily, so check back often. Enjoy!
