Post Your SR Feather Development Pictures Here

Post by gemini » Thu Apr 08, 2021 2:06 pm

This thread is for holding photos posted by members in aid of the Feather Development Project.

We are looking for people to help collect screenshots from each day from each of our HWF nests to create a visual growth chart, which we could feature on our website to assist other researchers.

To quote Myles Lamont who suggested this, "It would be great if there was a standard pose or two (laying down vs sitting up) for every couple of days that could be collected throughout the season across each nest site. Would be very good to know if there is much variation between pairs in the region."

It would be great if someone could look through the screenshots from each day and pick out a few that help show the subtle changes from day to day - or if you have a really great shot of one or more of the chicks, feel free to post it here as well as on the observations thread.

If you post a picture, please include the time/date stamp or include the date and time in the post. You can also post a link to a post on the observations thread ("the second picture in this post - URL" for example) - and one of the admins (or maybe a volunteer :luck: ) will copy the images over.

Full-screen high resolution images are best - but if you see something smaller that's really perfect - please include it.

This is all new, so we may change how it works once we get started - but we are trying to get it started now, because the chicks really do grow very very fast.

Thank you in advance for your help with this!

Note - we're still figuring out how to do this, so things may change. What I'm going to try for the next hour or so is to go through the observation thread, copy the images I find interesting to a folder on my hard drive and then re-attach them here. I'm thinking that David and Myles will need the original images for their projects, so this will make it easier to provide them with a set of pictures (I think - like I said, we're still working on this). Please do feel free to follow gemini's example and attach or link to images that help show how eaglets develop (thanks, gemini!) - and be aware that we may move them around, since I'm thinking the thread may also become a good way to look back on the season.

Initially I'm focusing on images that may provide a standard way of looking at the chicks (like with their back to the cam during a feeding) or that highlight some growth or development (size of beak or feet, or feathers coming in) - but that may change once we've done a bit of work on this.

Thoughts and suggestions are welcome (and may move or disappear as we continue) - this isn't something we've tried before, but it does sound interesting - so here we go!

Note: many of the screenshots are mine; I'm trying to credit other observers whose shots I'm using, and apologize in advance if I miss someone.
