more than a year later....

I now know more about Blue tits than I ever thought I would or even knew that I would enjoy the learning about. I am here to tell you one thing. Commons has a template which states that whatever video or sound file it is placed with is "one of the best on the commons". I have personally been responsible for having that template placed on several files that are barely a fraction of "as good" as the videos you have uploaded here.

I have some questions about the technology that was used in getting such videos -- I suspect that I am looking for confirmation more than actually needing questions to be answered.

I am going to apologize for all people who use commons for the sad fact that only a bot has been here and the bot, while informative, probably cannot tell the difference between the typical dump (upload) and the truly great uploads.

I am here at the least doing this one thing that the bot didn't do. Thank you for the great uploads. -- Queeg (talk) 22:55, 4 July 2011 (UTC)

Permission of photo usage

Dear Mr. Heron, I am writing to you for your kind permission to use the nice photo of Sturnus vulgaris(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Colourful_starling.jpeg). I want to use it in our student textbook about invasion biology. The URL and your name will appear together with the photo in the textbook.

Thank you in advance.

Sincerely, Mingxing
