Firstly Richard, before you try to sale your picture you are taking...try getting some language lessons. This will make you a better photography and communicate more.

Richard,
It is great that you are interested in photography. A small percentage of hobby photographers do make some money from selling their pictures. Look at some stock photography websites. Is your work as good as the best ones you see there? If so, contact them for instructions on how to submit. If not, get a few books on beginning photography and learn about technique, camera settings and how they affect your image, lighting and composition.
Frankly, you should worry about your schooling right now. If English is your first language, obviously you haven't been paying attention in class. Keep taking pictures and learning about photography, but your main energy needs to be spent on a basic education.
Pictures of things like pets, flowers, and landscapes are hard to sell unless they are simply outstanding. Bird photography particularly is hard to do well, and takes very expensive lenses and knowhow to get a marketable shot. You might try making a few greeting or note cards and selling them at a local business. You can buy the cards and envelopes where you just insert the picture into the card frame. If you have a good shot of a local landmark then people might buy them. Good luck.
EDIT: For some reason I thought you were 14 years old. (Guess I saw apt 14) Anyway, if you are English as a second language, I apologize for my remark about schooling! I wish I could communicate in multiple languages, even if not perfectly!

Good luck.
Since the advent of digital camera's, everyone has become a photographer.
Back in the film days I set up shop as a wedding photographer. I had the know how, the equipment, the patience to do a damn fine job. I eventually got out of the business and hung up my camera. Then got interested again when digital finally looked decent and hung out my shingle again and quickly went out of business.
Digital is cheap, damn cheap compared to the old days. Then factor in the software and it makes taking one hell of a lot better photo's then I took in my hay-day, easy.
That is one of the reasons I have declared most all my photo's part of the public domain within a few guidelines on my web site. There are a few other reasons of which I outlined there.
Yes, you can make money taking photo's, but the sheer number of photographers seems to have made the market saturated.
All I can say is good luck. You have to have a lot of talent, patience, determination, and some dumb luck to make it in the business.
