Over the past year I had come to realize whether you were on a micro-computer or a mobile phone, location tags in the sidebars had become overwhelming. This website has been live since January 2014, and now has over 2,500 archived posts. I needed to make these 2,500 posts easily viewable by birding location, but limit confusion. Thus, on this first day of 2026 I have hopefully fixed the HUGE number of sidebar location tags which can overwhelm the user, BUT still kept them easily available and readable.
Via the any device’s top menu there is now the menu item: Bird by Location.
If you select that menu option the Northeastern Minnesota Birding Locations PDF and every other birding location tag loads. Take a look. This gets the location tags off the sidebars where the location numbers were overwhelming and also increased website load times.
Here are two screenshots taken on a PC. This menu also appears in a mobile phone’s root menu. Location data / tags will still be published with every post.

Happy New Year! Great job on your website reorganization! You’ve provided such a wealth of information that is easy to access. Thank you.
Thank you. Believe it or not I had the idea to have Google Gemini critique my website, and the feedback was actually very useful. Gemini also noted my tags as cluttering up the sidebar and slowing down load times. I had already been worrying about the little cation tags and Gemini pushed me over the top to implement and publish the changes. Uff dah!
What s lovely way to start the new year. Blessings to all and peace be with us.
