You're totally right Craig and that has been suggested to add NYC to the title. Hopefully that happens soon. The plan is to make it global in the future.

Very nice! New to me too.
Perhaps the project name could be changed to "Great NYC Pollinator Project'? It does seem very confusing. Better still would be a real Global Pollinator Project.

Very cool flowers, I've never seen these before. Just to let you know the Great Pollinator mission is only for spottings from the NYC area. I made the same mistake and so did many others.
