Surfbirds covers a broad range of birding material and our syndicated feeds make it easier for you to stay on top of what's going on in the birding world even when you are not on the Surfbirds website.
Many ISP providers such as Yahoo! (and BT Intenet Yahoo!) offer personalized homepages where you can add customized syndicated content (news, sports, weather, movie times etc). Or you may prefer to use a desktop news reader (see links below)
If you would like to add a feed of your favorite Surfbirds blog to your customized Yahoo! homepage, look on the left hand side of your favorite blog and click on the link Syndicate This Site. Copy and paste the url (web address) into the “add content” section of your Yahoo! page. Find the link that says “Add RSS by URL” Every time you log in to Yahoo! to check your email, stocks, weather etc, you will also see the latest updates to your selected blog (s).
