84.2% of traffic to my web site this month has come via links on this web site. That's 13,000 visits looking at 84,000 pages. It just blows my mind when I read this info. Top 10 countries are GB, Germany, Estonia, USA, Sweden, Canada, Ireland, China, Australia and Belgium. 11 people have spent over an hour viewing the pages. The average stay is 40 minutes.

The most looked at page is?

We have touched on different operating systems. Hits to the web site show the top three systems are Windows, Macintosh and Linux. IE, Fierfox and Safari are to top three browsers

Well, then it works with Firefox too...

13,000 hits is just amazing, but you have a very nice site with beautiful photo's. Always a pleasure to visit your site.

Thanks David and Jim.

A suggestion has come in. I have been given a tip that should help everyone. Go back to
http://www.marksgardenplants.com/crocus2.htm press F5 to refresh the page. Place the cursor over the top left image. Does the name come up?

It's important for you to reply to say yes or no and what you are using for a computer and the internet eg IE, Firefox, Mac ..
Mark - with Mac/Firefox,  just placing the cursor over the pic brings up a name which disappears after about 5 secs. As before, nothing with Safari
Gerry passed away  at home  on 25th February 2021 - his posts are  left  in the  forum in memory of him.
His was a long life - lived well.

Gerry - Nothing here with Mac / Safari. The only way to see the name is to press Control / Save Image As and the name appears as the file name. Otherwise zilch.

Good news. A click on a Crocus photo at Mark's site now brings up the shot with the name! Great.

JohnI Googles where you live. Are you mild compared to the rest of Canada in the winter?

Mark,

I am using Firefox, and Yes, the top left, and only the top left, picture has the name appear when I hover over it now.
Cheers.

Mark - Southern Nova Scotia and parts of its Atlantic coast are probably the mildest areas in Canada east of coastal British Columbia.  Colder than that part of BC and you would think this area an icebox in the winter.  Cool summers, lots of fog, rain about the same as Vancouver distributed fairly evenly through the year but not always when needed.  Would like less snow, ice and a tad warmer & earlier spring, oh and more soil.

We are quite far south here, about 44 degrees and a bit latitude, roughly that of Milan.

Cheating a bit, the very mildest part of NS is an island 300km southeast of here. Sable Island is a fascinating sandspit, 45km long x 1km wide.  It's uninhabited aside from 1 provincial naturalist (she's been there most of her life researching the herd of wild Sable horses - they've been there since the 1700's  http://dutescoart.com/gallery/sablehorses/ ) and a couple environment Canada folks at times.  Interesting birds like the Ipswich Sparrow for one. It's illegal to go there without very special permission - I intend to try someday.    Worth googling.
