Thank you for the nomination, and thank you Neil for your comment!
Cheers for your nomination, Christine. This is a wonderful spotting, and it's always such a great feeling knowing you've contributed something to the site that is a first. Well done :)
Your spotting has been nominated for the Spotting of the Week. The winner will be chosen by the Project Noah Rangers based on a combination of factors including: uniqueness of the shot, status of the organism (for example, rare or endangered), quality of the information provided in the habitat and description sections. There is a subjective element, of course; the spotting with the highest number of Ranger votes is chosen. Congratulations on being nominated!
