Red-bellied Woodpecker

Thank you. The original photo was posted on an Ohio website and had an Ohio copyright hence the connection. All issues resolved, except that we ask that the Habitat field contains the actual habitat where the spotting was made and not where it is expected to be found. This is so that we can track any changes of habitat which may be occurring.

Please read and comply with our FAQs and Terms. Removal of the original copyright notice from this photograph contravenes these. Also take note that Richmond Va and Ohio ore not in the same region or locality as far as Project Noah is concerned. If a photograph is not taken from the same place on the same day as the spotting then it is not a true record and becomes of no value to Project Noah's commitment to accurate recording.. The only exception to this rule is where the location is withheld for endangered species for their own protection.

Well yes spottings should be bona fide not surrogate.

Hmmm. Then you have permission to use the photo? (See the disclaimer you ticked when you created the spotting). We must be vigilant due to copyright concerns. But besides that, the websites we saw concerned birds of Ohio. This is marked as a Virginia spotting. Where was this photo taken and does it match the map position in your spotting? Is this a photo of one of the red bellied woodpeckers you mention? Use of a surrogate bird from another site to represent those at your site would not conform to a bona fide PN spotting. Nor could birds from different sites be combined into the same spotting.

Hello. We've seen this photo on other websites. Have you posted it elsewhere? Can you tell us about this? Thanks
