Paul, I couldn't agree more. I'm actually kind of dumbfounded when
birders--especially experienced ones--tell me they don't use ebird. I posted
earlier that it's important for birders to contribute valuable field based
data (the kind of data that only they can provide). But I also find ebird to
be an invaluable resource. I've learned so much more about birds, migratory
patterns, birds' preferred habitats, birding locations, other birders for
that matter, and on and on using ebird. Dave

eBird Alert <daily>
Almost everyone who has replied to this thread has missed the fact that the
original poster specifically stated that he receives va-bird in DIGEST mode
and has trouble scrolling through all the execess lines on his tablet. None
of the suggestions for deleting or filtering are relevant to his situation.
Personally, I think that anyone who wants to see the Ebird reports should
join Ebird. In fact, anyone who cares enough about birds and birding to be
on this listserve should join Ebird.

You can block emails (or rather automatically delete them or move them to
any folder) with specific subject lines. Every email provider/client I've
used has this option, usually called a "filter" or a "rule".
