Changes

The replacement of the owl pic had to do with maintaining a difference between us and Wikipedia.  As much as possible, try to go to sites like Flickr, and look for those photos on any given subject that have been released to Creative Commons for free use.  The idea here is if Wikipedia has it on their page, look for something different.  [[User:Karajou|Karajou]] ([[User talk:Karajou|talk]]) 09:52, 2 June 2016 (EDT)

:Okay, that makes sense--thanks for the explanation.  I actually didn't realize WP has used that photo, I just picked it from the list on WikiMedia, but I should have checked.  Still, though, it's from the WP giant, so that's not the best in any case.  I sometimes try to get images from archives.gov or loc.gov, but they have a limited selection.  My problem with using Flickr has been finding license info, but I recently found [https://www.flickr.com/creativecommons] which should help.  I'll see if I can find more diverse images in the future using that.  Also, thanks for adding a sizable body section to that page--again, I'm not a bird person so I didn't dare, but it needed to be done.  There seem to be a number of bird pages like that, with only the side template. --[[User:DavidB4|David B]] ([[User talk:DavidB4|talk]]) 10:32, 2 June 2016 (EDT)
