cropping photos
Many of the photos on the site are crops from larger images. While this is perfectly understandable, and in most cases desirable, please could photographers be careful not to crop out parts of the bird. I've noticed this on a few occasions recently. In particular, the second of the martins above has had the tip of the tail cropped out, and it is not possible to see the full length. As Paul has pointed out, tail length is very important in identifying these birds (as well as a number of others).
