Videos of Texas Bird Species
Video Archives
Videos can be embedded in this site in a variety of ways. Ideally, most videos currently are saved to a Youtube account and can be embedded easily. Youtube videos are by far the best quality. Facebook videos look good on Facebook, but they cannot be extracted in HD. This site must pull them from Facebook in low-resolution and they cannot be improved. It is recommended that original videos be stored on Youtube. Photographers are encouraged to create their own account. See the tutorials page on creating your own Youtube channel and learn how to upload and edit your own videos.
