"Tips for birding . . ."
Most pages have descriptions from and links to official webpages about the location. Birders, especially those visiting the hotspot for the first time, appreciate more specific information about how to bird the location. Where do you park? Is there a trail or pond that is especially good to visit? Is it helpful to carry a scope? Is this spot good in a particular season? Are there birds that are regularly seen here? We add a paragraph on "Tips for birding . . ." to any location where you can share helpful information with birders about the place.

Photos
It is also extremely helpful to have photos which illustrate the habitat, parking lot, park sign, or give birders an idea of what to expect when they visit the park. I have found that photo links to the official website often break when the website is updated. Photos provided by birders are much preferred. In some cases, we have added a "photo tour" of the hotspot when a birder can provide 4 or 5 photos with brief descriptions. Sometimes a photo of a bird you observed also shows the habitat at the location.

Check your favorite locations
You might want to check the links to your favorite local birding locations to see if we have this information in the wiki. If you can provide new information or add to what is there, it will be most appreciated by the birding community.
