Haha.. no.. me not there .. scan a copy and share le..

There is a birding ethic (and wildlife) to follow. Just google "Birding ethics" and you get some stuff to follow..

Basically Observe, Shoot and Leave thing as it is..

e.g.
On Ecology:
Enticing the bird live baits, like frogs, that are not part of local natural environment, and which subsequently threatened local species?
Interfering their lives, scaring them or causing them to abandon their nest and babies?

Even to the simplest like
Do you cut or trample on the twigs and leaves that block your lens view?

I once got scolded by park rangers for picking up broken fungi for photography (he thought I plucked them)

On human side:
Are we blocking ways, pathways?
Causing nuisance to others?
