@TUExplorer1 If you're on Instagram, have a look at other accounts' image descriptions (which are included in the captions) for a few examples. It doesn't have to be too detailed. Three sentences is probably the max (unless you're writing out text from a graphic). 👍

To add an image description on @Twitter: Underneath the uploaded image click the small, gray "Add description", then type in whatever the photo shows, and type out any text in the image. Click 'Save', and you've made the world a little bit more accessible and inclusive. Easy! 🙌

Great stuff @Twitter! 🙌 Do you add alt text to your Tweets with images? Please do! It only takes a minute, and it makes your Tweets more accessible. More info on the importance of alt text and image descriptions here: birdability.org/blog/what-is-t…

Who’s planning some car birding this weekend? 🙋‍♀️ Join Birdability's Freya McGregor for a car birding trip at this Saturday's Black Belt Birding Festival, hosted by @alaudubon. In-person registration is still available. Swallow-tailed Kites are a strong possibility! 🤩

Thank you @BirdNoteRadio for sharing about our work to make birding and the outdoors more welcoming, safe, accessible and inclusive for birders with disabilities! 🙌
