Exclude certain tags from search

[Alias Rick 0]

Hi, 

I understand how to find notes that have no tags

I understand how to find notes that are not tagged with a certain tag

What I'd like to do is exclude certain tags from my searches... e.g. I have a lots of notes tagged 'birds', and a lot tagged 'places'. Quite a few have both. What I'd like to do is find all the 'places' that are NOT also 'birds'...

Can this be done? 

Thanks

A negative search can be powerful. Did you try the following search:

tag:places -tag:birds

Ah... Great, thanks!
