Welcome to bryancotter.com, the bird photography and birding portfolio of Bryan Cotter. By accessing or using this website, you agree to the following terms. If you do not agree, please do not use the site.
Every photograph, image, and gallery on this website is the original work of Bryan Cotter and is protected by United States and international copyright law. All rights are reserved. The images here represent countless hours in the field and years behind the camera — please treat them accordingly.
You may not download, copy, screenshot, reproduce, print, republish, sell, or otherwise use any image from this site — in whole or in part, for personal or commercial purposes — without my prior written permission. This includes use on social media, blogs, printed materials, and the use of my images to train machine-learning or AI models or datasets. Removing or altering a watermark or copyright notice is prohibited.
Do you love a particular shot? Many of my images are available for licensing or as prints. If you would like to use an image or purchase one, please get in touch and we can discuss it. Licensed use is granted only in writing and only for the specific use agreed upon.
The text, species information, hotspot descriptions, and other written content on this site are provided for your personal, non-commercial enjoyment and reference. You are welcome to link to my pages, but please do not copy or republish the content as your own.
Where this site describes birding tours or wildlife hotspots, please remember that birds are wild and nature is wonderfully unpredictable. While I draw on years of experience to give you the best possible opportunities, no specific bird, species, or sighting can ever be guaranteed. Tour availability, locations, and conditions may change with weather, seasons, and the birds themselves.
I share species and location information in good faith and keep it as current as I can, but the natural world changes constantly. Access to hotspots, seasonal timing, and bird activity can all shift, so please use the information here as a helpful guide rather than a guarantee.
This site may link to my other websites and to outside resources. I am not responsible for the content, accuracy, or practices of any third-party site.
This website and its content are provided on an "as is" basis for your information and enjoyment. To the fullest extent permitted by law, I am not liable for any loss or damage arising from your use of the site or reliance on its content.
I may update these terms from time to time as the site evolves. The current version will always be posted on this page.
