Welcome to The Bird Energy Photo Network!

This community gallery is sponsored by the Burning Hawk Wine Project. It is devoted to sharing photographs of birds on or near power infrastructure. Our hope is that together we can create one of the largest photo galleries in the world related to bird/energy interaction

We welcome tasteful and high-quality contributions of birds in the wild interacting with the power system (e.g. power lines, windmills). 

Please email your contributions for now to nick_p@sonic.net with short descriptions of your picture including data such as (species, location, date) and a few sentences of commentary.

We reserve the right to remove photos that we deem as not appropriate for this site. Thanks in advance for your understanding!
