Accessibility at The AI Birder
The AI Birder aims to meet WCAG 2.2 at Level AA. The checks described below cover particular pages and interactions; they do not establish full conformance across the website. If you encounter a barrier, email webmaster@aibirder.co.uk with the page URL.
Checks and changes on 25 October 2026
The Tide interface’s checked colour combinations produced contrast ratios of 11.28:1 and 7.54:1. A home-page text scan covered 532 text instances and passed the checks applied to that scan. These results describe the combinations and page content examined, rather than every possible state or page on the site.
At a 390px viewport, checks covered Minsmere, photographs, the grid and watching content. The work addressed the layout at that narrow width so that those checked areas could be used without their previous display problems. Other content, browser settings and viewport sizes can still expose issues.
Keyboard checks covered 167 controls and a further 22 controls. The checked controls used a visible 3px focus indicator. A visible focus helps show which element will respond when you use the keyboard; it is one part of keyboard accessibility, alongside navigation order, labels and the behaviour of interactive controls.
What these checks do not establish
These were targeted checks and fixes, not a complete independent accessibility audit. They do not prove that every page, component, browser and assistive technology combination meets every WCAG 2.2 AA requirement. The site’s target should not be read as a declaration that no barriers remain.
Third-party services have their own interfaces and accessibility limitations. Following a booking link or another external link can take you away from the site, and the checks above do not cover that provider’s pages. Reserve accessibility information also describes a physical visit and needs separate confirmation with the operator.
Report an accessibility problem
Email webmaster@aibirder.co.uk and include the URL, what you were trying to do and what prevented you from doing it. If possible, add your device, browser and any assistive technology. A description of the affected control or text helps locate the problem without requiring you to diagnose its technical cause.
If the issue concerns visiting a reserve, use the operator’s current access information and contact details for route or facility questions. Use the site contact address for a barrier in finding, reading or operating information on The AI Birder.
