It’s no secret, we really enjoy Flickr. That’s why we created the Burdr photo group there. It’s a great way for people to share their photos of birds with people from all over the world for free.

Sometimes Flickr adds fun little extras too. Do you remember those red holiday hats and white beards? Well, looks like the snow is falling again on Flickr this year!

Add ?snow=1 to the end of a URL for any Flickr photo page

When on a Flickr page for an individual photo, just add “?snow=1″ to the end of the URL. Snow will begin to fall from the top of the page and collect on the bottom. Click the above photo to see an example.

Just a silly little feature to add before sending a bird photo off to friends and family!

    I love it,but how do you make it stay on there so when others come to view your pic they are greeted with falling snow?

    I added it to a Flickr photo and sent it over to my Facebook and it worked!Really cool! It only works when sending your photos somewhere.Sure wish you could have it on there all the time,cause it is just the neatest thing!
