Recent sightings of California Brown Pelicans

This repo pulls data from the iNaturalist API and publishes it as an Atom feed so I can subscribe to new pelican photos in NetNewsWire.

See Building and deploying a custom site using GitHub Actions and GitHub Pages for implementation details.

iNaturalist has atom feeds too

I built this before I found out iNaturalist have their own Atom feeds:
