@Pollinators
Also - don't worry about mixing languages! Translation works great for the most part, as long as the language tags on the posts line up
@johnmwildlife@SmolHaj Thank you!

@johnmwildlife welcome
That's a lovely photograph!I haven't fully figured Mastodon out yet but hashtags and alt tags are definitely a good way to get started.
@webidebi Thank you! We will get there I'm sure!
-
@johnmwildlife I think its great what you are doing. Does Flickr charge anyone using your photos? The current picture shows a bird taking off. I think photos do also provide a message..
@MokhtarStork Thank you! To be honest, I've no idea about Flickr. My understanding is anyone can view or download them for free under the Creative Commons license - but don't quote me on that!

Welcome to the community! Lovely ro have you here!

Diving into Mastodon a bit like the chaffinch diving off this branch. Hi everyone, I'm John a hobbyist wildlife photographer based in Scotland. I currently upload all of my images to Flickr but I'm wanting somewhere else to share some of them too. Still not quite sure how Mastodon works but hope to view yours and share more of my wildlife and nature photographs.
