Given the fact we now have a handful of official Zoochat Photographic Guides pertaining to bird groups, myself and the other moderators thought it would be a good idea to post an index for birds akin to the existing one for mammals. Considering the recent spate in unsanctioned threads of lower quality - despite the fact that we've noted in the past that we would like people aiming to create a photographic guide to ask for permission (both to prevent multiple threads being created on the same topic, and as a means of preventing poor quality attempts) - this is also a good point to repeat that request when we have a chance, we will also create a short guide to the formatting, style and quality we aim for in these threads for the benefit of anyone who is deemed able to handle the task.

This index has been updated to reflect the completed guides to Old World Flycatchers, Thrushes, Starlings and allies, Pigeons, Sandgrouse and Mesites, and Toucans, along with the in-progress guide to Shorebirds.
This index has been updated to reflect the completed guide covering Hoatzins, Cuckoos, Turacos and Bustards.
It was updated three weeks ago. The only change since then is that I have just started the Suliformes thread today (Suliformes was originally going to be included with the Pelecaniformes but @Sarus Crane - who is doing the Pelecaniformes thread - felt that they didn't have the time to commit to both Orders and so we split it out).
This thread has now been updated to reflect the completion of the guides to the Suliformes and Rails et al respectively, and the fact a guide to the Psittaciformes has now been started.
