A bird does not sing because it has an answer. It sings because it has a song.

I would encourage everyone to review the criteria (copied below) for rating
photos in eBird and attempt a more critical review of your photos and those of
others. Put simply, many photos are being rated 4 and 5 stars when they are out-of-focus,
pixelated/low resolution, or obscured by foliage. “Good focus” is required for
a 3 star rating. The rarity of the bird should have no bearing on the rating
itself. Very few 5 star photos are truly captured each day, but it appears to be one of the most popular ratings locally.

Rate the quality of the image, not the quality of the bird or the observation. A great photo of a common, drab bird should still be 5 stars and a poor photo of a very rare or hard-to-photograph bird could still be only 1 or 2 stars. When rating, please consider the photo guidelines, as well as the following factors:
