My 'puter harddrive has a major directory called Birds - Australia (jpg); in this directory is a sub-directory called 03 Galliformes (Chicken-like Birds) ; in this directory is a sub-sub-directory called 04 Pheasant, Fowl & allies and in that directory is a folder called 02 Stubble Quail
an and I .I will find all of my pics of Stubble Quail in that folder
Of course I have separate folders for cock, hen and juvenile birds where warranted.
I have a similar list and directory, sub-directory, etc for the pics that I got in North America last year.
I hope that this helps at least person keep good track of their bird pics.
Mind you the largest directory/folder that I have is the 1 labelled - aa not sorted. For the '000s of pics that I have yet to sort to species or delete 'cause it is not good enough.
and please remember to maintain a good back-up process where you are backing up your pics to an external drive.

Wow pacman, soooo organised, you must have an anaylitical mind.
Great system.....if I ever get my A into G I will have to give it a go

.........wow, I have no system. Just like my drawers, they are filled with "stuff", if you open them quickly, "stuff" falls out. That doesn't matter, I just "stuff the stuff" back in. The good thing is, I DO remember where I put my "stuff"
As for the photos, I name them, like :weekend with Bob at the wetlands. I will remember what Bob and I saw. ( although I never met Bob. LOL) If not, I just have to scroll through 26000 photos, no problem.

Araminta, don't you get stuffed stuffing all that stuff back into your drawers?
