If you have a little bit common sense, you shouldn't say things like that. Not ALL the wildlife photographers are given "bad name". Knowledgeable, understandable, respectable, a wildlife photographer can build up good relationship with animals, birds etc. In this gallery, you may see (I hope you can see) the baby birds were safely living until they left the nest to begin their new life. Also, do you think if the branches were trimmed and the birds were still staying in the nest? Do you have any knowledge about photography? Do you know how to use flash/light properly for birds? Do you know what kind of birds can't be shot with flash? Tell you something: there's no any evidence to prove that the flash, when using in a certain distance, will kill the birds. Go to read books about birds and you will get the answer.

Terrible to get that close and for all the flash you used. :( I hope you did not trim branches around the nest too. This gives all wildlife photographers bad name.
