Where can I ask bird science questions on this forum? (1 Viewer)

I'm reading a book by Donald Kroodsma about birdsong. It's my first bird book and my introduction into the world of birds! I have so many questions, really really simple questions. So I really need some help. If anyone could PM me to answer some simple, really stupid questions I would really love it.

(why are none of the smilies here related to birds by the way, whose idea was that?)

Ask away, and welcome to BF.

widowberriesdotnet, welcome to birdforum.

This is not a bad place to start asking: but please check back to read the answer.

Additionally, please notice the "resources" part of our Opus: http://www.birdforum.net/opus/Resources_Portal

There are 6 pages with bird related dictionary and one page with bird topography.

Crazy isn't it?

(Been discussed in the past - we definitely need a Penguin one for starters)

Hi wb.net, welcome to BF (the land of many abbreviations)!

Probably best to post the questions out there on an open forum (e.g., "Birds & Birding" or "Bird Behaviour") to get as many opinions as possible. Don't worry, we don't bite! Now that you're signed up, you'll find the Advanced Search is quick to use as well, you can play around with that a bit.

(I think the emoticons are just part of a set provided by the host, and therefore not specific to us at all).

(Anyway, you missed this one: :flyaway
