    Possible trip to Norway

    Just pondering my next trip, having been to Iceland recently and missed Gyr (again!) the Lincoln's Sparrow was some compensation though! I thought Norway might be a place to finally track my nemesis down. I realise no-one is ever going to reveal precise summer locations but how likely is it for...

    Googlemail vs. Gmail for email alerts

    Hi I use googlemail to push Birdguides email alerts to my android phone. Google seem keen for users to migrate to the gmail domain, so I thought i'd give it a try.
