Post your Birds in Flight

I don't know I have tried to figure out why. When I export from Lightroom I have it checked to include all EXIF info. Then I download it to Flickr which doesn't take it away. At least it is not supposed to. Then I paste the link to the photo. I don't understand why it gets rid of it. Whichever one does it.

Anyone have any advice on this?

How do I attach a file to a post?
To attach a file to your post, you need to be using the main 'New Post' or 'New Thread' page and not 'Quick Reply'. To use the main 'New Post' page, click the 'Post Reply' button in the relevant thread.
On this page, below the message box, you will find a button labelled 'Manage Attachments'. Clicking this button will open a new window for uploading attachments. You can upload an attachment either from your computer or from another URL by using the appropriate box on this page. Alternatively you can click the Attachment Icon to open this page.
To upload a file from your computer, click the 'Browse' button and locate the file. To upload a file from another URL, enter the full URL for the file in the second box on this page. Once you have completed one of the boxes, click 'Upload'.
Once the upload is completed the file name will appear below the input boxes in this window. You can then close the window to return to the new post screen.
What files types can I use? How large can attachments be?
In the attachment window you will find a list of the allowed file types and their maximum sizes. Files that are larger than these sizes will be rejected. There may also be an overall quota limit to the number of attachments you can post to the board.
How do I add an image to a post?
If you have uploaded an image as an attachment, you can click the arrow next to the 'Attachment Icon' and select it from the list. This will be inserted into your post and can be located where you want it displayed.
To include an image that is not uploaded as an attachment and is located on another website, you can do so by copying the full URL to the image, (not the page on which the image is located), and either pressing the 'Insert Image' icon or by typing
after it, ensuring that you do not have any spaces before or after the URL of the image. You can insert photos from your albums (?) in this way too.

That is how I do it using Flickr to attach the image using the URL. I will check settings on everything to see if a setting is wrong.

Do you think this photo is trash as it is from behind and the eye is not visible because of wing? Would you trash it or use it?

If your question is just an open one, I would keep it if I had no other shots of shovelers OR if it was showing some aspect of the bird which might be good to see, like if you wanted to have it as an example for hunters following the duck. Otherwise , I think its better to grow particular about the details , so that you are showing shots you're satisfied with, and just the ones you're satisfied with , and are up to a rising standard of expectation that your audience has,,,, and you have plenty of shots that do not have a blocked eye or retreating subject . I keep shots like this in a personal library for reference, but don't show them.
