That's a terrific title and you've made a wonderful start to your Gallery.

Welcome to Birdforum Peyodanduche - I'll look forward to seeing some more of your pictures.

BTW I have added some tags to your picture here, as that is the main area where the Search feature looks when asked to find pictures. Without the name and, preferably, the scientific name too, your lovely pictures will not be seen by people searching for particular species. The other places it looks are the Title and Description area.

The scientific names added to the picture details field, provide a link to our Opus articles on the species. If there's more than one species, just separate them by a comma.

Thanks a lot Delia, I apologize for entering without knocking. I registered in 2022 but I should had to pass by a brief presentation. I am 68 and maybe not very easy with how to deal with sites and not very self confident with my broken English (French or Euskara, I am from Pays Basque).
BTW, a small request, include the Basco flag into the list country flags, it is a beautiful one !!!
Thanks a lot for your warm welcome and for your help and advises !
