I belong to the MD Birder group on FB and, at least online, it is a ray of sunshine on the internet. Everyone losing their minds over hummingbirds. Molting posts are hilarious.

But yeah, the lower the stakes, the higher the drama with hobby groups unless you do some serious community building..

I only know about the gritty and mean birder groups.
