I miss the white map with small dots. Just a few dots now look like the whole state is covered. I'll get used to it though.

I have been having a hard time with the purple Martin reporting site for some reason. When I click on Texas, I get nothing although when I did it over a week ago, I did get the report from Sugarland. When I click on Florida, it says there are no reports from Tennessee. Don't understand what's going on.

Carolyn, the web developer is working on some fixes so the maps can be viewed on iphone, and that is causing some issues - we are sorry and hope it will all be resolved soon.

Here is a tweak to try for now.

Click on any state (Florida in this instance) on that blank map and it should give you this link; https://www.purplemartin.org/research/s ... =2016&S=FL
if you go to click on Florida and wind up in Manitoba; https://www.purplemartin.org/research/s ... =2016&S=MB change those last two letters to the state abbreviation you want to see, so for Texas, delete MB and type in TX and it will go to the 2016 reports for Texas

Same thing for previous years as well, so to view 2015 Texas reports, change the year to 2015 and state abbr. to TX and you should be good to go.

Also, when you click on view in list form, then select a state, you will have to scroll down a bit to see the list. For the map with dots, use the + button at lower right to zoom in and get a quick view of reports.

FL view by list today: https://www.purplemartin.org/research/s ... =2016&S=fl
