Biology made a modpost redirecting them and just didn't enforce it. It's a mess.
I am not an ornithologist but I can tell the difference between "whatsthisbird" and "birding". I think.
Whatsthisbird is for identification and birding is for the hobby of photographing and finding birds right? At a guess, swear no looking.
E: okay now I looked and subbed. I love pro pictures of birds. There's that person that always posts on animalporn and I dig it.

But this line of thinking requires you to know both exist. When in reality you can just snap a blurry pic of a house sparrow with your Motorola Razer from 2005 and post to Birding, asking if it's a rare bird species

I actually didn't know either sub existed but I sure as hell know how to Google. Literally everyone does.
More importantly I can go on a sub and search for top all time and read the sidebar.
And that bit about the razr was the first thing that made me audibly laugh on here in a while.

And your post gets removed by the mods. Easy.

It doesn't though, because the mods gave up on trying to redirect people

Well then it's a problem with moderation but it's solvable.

I wonder if they added a tag, like "identification", then auto removed every post with that tag and auto comment to go to the other sub.
Might be annoying to force people to tag in order to post though.
