This little bird is adorable! With the fluffy feathers, curious expression, curve of his feet while he's perched up on the roof. However, as cute as he (she?) is, it's worth noting the conservation that was mentioned and some people may or may not forget that some animals are being endangered. But I think the softness and light hearted-ness of the photo speaks for some irony here that might get it across: cute, but endangered. But I understand that the photo was not meant to be full-blown 'take action', but rather a nice heads-up to let everyone know.
My only thing with the photo is the watermark, not for the protection but really just for the stark black text against a light grey/white of the gutters/roof. All in all though, a really nice photo of a really cute, fluffy little bird! e.deviantart.net/emoticons/s/s… " width="15" height="15" alt="
