Not in my opinion, no. 25 years of nonsense. At least.

Great comparison.
Black Woodpecker. Oldies from the memories file. What absolute beasts these #birds are! ππ I remember watching this bird demolish that branch. Within a minute it had hacked right through it. #woodpecker

I rarely raise the spectre of #theIRBC on Bluesky, as I like to keep the place positive.
But the #irishrarebirds recording in #Ireland is now so bad, so damaged by this toxic organization that I feel I have to post. #birds #birding

Goshawk. On an otherwise grey, frustrating day where I dipped Pallas's Warbler, but found Hume's on all (but poor views), this beast was very obliging all morning around a Helsinki park. ππ #ChooseTheFormOfTheDestrctor #birds #birding #raptors #finland

Unbeknownst to me, they're filming some WW2 movie down the road from me.
A bit of a shock to be returning home, only to be surrounded on the road by 100+ armed Nazis!! π€¦π€¦π€¦π±π±π±
Still better than Twitter though... #nazis

Much is sometimes made of not being able to accurately judge size and structure when it comes to Goshawk and Sparrowhawk.
This is the reality.
Exactly the kind of post that could make #BirdID a magnificent feed everyone could benefit from.
Just need the birders to structure their posts like this if they can think that way.

Tawny Owl
Tawny Owl in my garden today. Grey morph. ππ Truly beautiful bird. Sadly, none of the other garden residents appreciated him. π€¦ #birds #owls #SuperbOwl #birding #birdwatching #finland
