      Did those birds consent to you watching?

      You’re welcome to have kinks, but there are courtesies/standards/best practices to obey at the very least.

          I’m not sure I agree.

          We’re the ones that destroyed their homes/private spaces to claim them as our own ‘public spaces’. (keeping in mind they can’t exactly build fully enclosed private spaces like we can, at least not all species)

          In many places, You would also still be violating privacy laws if you used/required binoculars or other vision enhancing devices in order to observe people having sex.

          For example: using a mirror to see over a tall fence and watch your neighbours fuck in their backyard, Or watching through a distant apartment window with binoculars.

          • I was only saying this as in my country it is something you should know if you’re into street photography.

            That being that if a person is in a public place they have no reasonable expectation of privacy and you can photograph them. Even if they’re in an open field with no fences and are having sex then you could film them, you’d be an asshole but you could do it.

            It should be said that it’s generally the best course of action to delete photos if someone objects, but legally you don’t have to.

            I love birds and i respect their lives.

      I’ve only seen a disappointingly small number of bird watchers masturbate while watching the birds fucking. Feels like most of them are just posers. Back in my day we never let a good bird fucking go to waste.

        That’s what I’ve been saying!

        Nowadays it’s all “sir, what are your doing?” And “I’m calling the police”

        No sense for tradition

    Did…did a bird write this? Can birds use the Internet now? HAVE THEY EVOLVED BEYOND JUST USING PUBLIC TRANSPORTATION???
