That's quite alright. There is definitely a learning curve and we're all here to help. I look forward to more of your spottings in the future.

Hi there. If you're certain of an organism's ID, you can go ahead and edit the spotting and add the details. You don't need to fill out an ID Suggestion. That's for others to use if you need help with the ID. Feel free to join any of the live chats on the main Project Noah website for any questions you might have, and welcome to PN! :-)
