Hopefully, though last night's coughing wasn't good. Now she gave it to me. The nature of being with children :) Maybe someday we'll be able to image viruses and put them on Project Noah, too!

An excellent idea, and one that I usually follow. Was interrupted by a sick baby this time :)

This is a lovely spotting. To make it complete, and useful to researchers using this site for data, please edit this and add a reference (Wikipedia, Encyclopedia of Life, something else) about this species in the reference field of your spotting. Please do this for each photo you post. Thanks for helping to make Project Noah a complete reference tool for scientists.
