I’ve received a couple of questions about what RSS is or how to access an RSS feed for this blog, so I thought I’d post some quick instructions here:
I’m currently using the Safari browser on a mac, and a little “RSS” tag in blue is displayed in the address line at the top of the page. If you click on it it switches to the RSS reader view, and you can bookmark it and place it on your bookmarks bar at the top of the browser. When the blog is updated, a little number should pop up next to the link on your bookmarks bar.
I believe Firefox works the same, and I’m not sure about Internet Explorer, but there is a link on the microsoft website that explains it:
http://www.microsoft.com/windows/rss/default.mspx
As always, feel free to email me questions or to leave them in the comments…
[...] Check the blog! I’ll try and post the location of our next excursion at least a day in advance (usually based on the weather tools from #2). This will also give you some idea about the kind of birding we’ll be doing: is it in the open? Will we be in a forest? If you want to get notified when the blog is updated, try subscribing to the RSS feed (instructions here). [...]
