> Digest - This links to the ABA Birding News 7-day Digest for MDBirding that is specifically coded for mobile browsers.

> Browse Hotspots - Google map links to hotspots aggregated by county - Again this seems to work nicely with navigation on some phones (Android). Missing counties will be added soon.
> Rarities by County - links to eBird for each county's "Rare Bird Alert" page
