Cool spotting. Since you know what these are, can you please go to Wikipedia or Encyclopedia of Life and find their scientific name and add that and the reference to this spotting please? Project Noah works as a crowd-sourced data gathering tool only if scientific names are present whenever possible. Thanks.
