Blogrolling Birds
Hi,
As we all know, the Web is an astounding, roiling treasure trove of information. But the changes come at us so fast and furious that at times it's difficult to keep up, let alone find valuable content... Let's see what we can do about that...
Some time ago we talked about using the eBirdseed.com site and installing and using RSS. Now let's take a look at the "Blogroll" depicted below.
You can find our blogroll on the right-hand side of the main eBirdseed.com blog page.
Each of these blogs offers unique features, but I'd like to take a quick look at three in particular today...
Gotta' love it!
See you by those many and varied feeders,
CapeCodAlan
P.S. Should you happen upon a great bird blog, send me a comment and I'll update our 'roll!

- 10,000 Birds: I really enjoy the simplicity of this one... The home page simply contains the first paragraph of a few posts, a simple search engine text box, links to recent posts, and the other standard stuff (menu bar, etc.) Its straightforward nature is reflected in such posts as, Birding on My Butt.
- Birdchick.com: This site covers all things avian (and bunnies, and bees, and flowers), but its creator (Sharon Stiteler) really shines when it comes to raptors. The photography is excellent, and Ms. Stiteler's passion for birding is just as impressive... This is a "must-see" blog.
- Mary's View: This just might be my favorite... The writing is great. The photography is phenomenal. And the subject matter is diverse and top notch. This is another "must-see".
Gotta' love it!

Thanks for revisiting the RSS info (kind of) - I just recently set up my aggregate and that prompted me to add it in while reading. Now I can keep up better.
