Great spotting and images Olivia! We very much like the collection you've started on Project Noah. One little tip: under the Habitat field, could we please ask you to describe the actual habitat where your spotting was made, rather than generic habitat. From our FAQ page: "Please state the actual habitat where you photographed the spotting - this information can then be used to track changes in habitat, such as those caused by human intervention or habitat destruction. It is not necessary to state published habitat information here, this can be referenced in the 'reference links' box". Thanks in advance!
