Life at the Annapolis Royal Marsh: Calling the wild

Calling the wild

Fog to start off with again today. Several bird calls greeted me from among the cattails alongside the the trail. I 'returned the call' and waited to see what would appear. Eventually a swamp sparrow, a savannah sparrow, and then this female Common Yellowthroat emerged from the vegetation. It takes patience to get them to come out in the open, but well worth the wait.

How to Post a Comment

It seems there's some confusion as to how to make a comment, so I hope these directions make it easier (I like getting feedback).

Step 1: Under any posting, click on "O comments" (or "1 comment" or "2 comments", whatever the case may be). A new window will open, titled "Post a Comment" above a big blank space.

Step 2: Under the big space you'll see "Comment as" followed by a small space with a little blue box at the right end with a "v" in it. Click on the "v", and a menu will drop down.

Step 3: Click on "Name/URL" in the menu, and another window will open, titled "Edit profile". Enter your name, and ignore the URL part. Click "Continue".

Step 4: Write your comment in the big box.

Step 5: Click "Post Comment" (or you can click "Preview" first if you want to edit your comment before posting)

That's it! 'Hope to hear from you.
