Facebook for Birders

Are you interested in expanding your network of birding friends? Then you might want to check out Gunnar Engblom’s beginners guide for using Facebook for just such a purpose. A recent convert to Facebook myself, I’ve found that it provides a great way to meet and keep in touch with birding and blogging friends across the globe.

Thanks for the plug. I wanted to add your blog to my Google Reader, but I cannot find the RSS feed on your page.
If you want to add my blog to your RSS reader (I do recommend Google Reader , but you probably already knew what great resource that is in order follow a large number of blogs) here is my blog.

I blog about birding, mostly from Peru, but also elsewhere; and I blog about social media for birders -such as the Facebook manual. Hope you like it.
I am also adding you to my blog roll. Will appreciate reciprocal link, if possible.

I am preparing a new manual called "blogging for birders". We need to become better as a community and support each other.

Saludos

In retirement, birds remain my constant obsession.
