Field Notes

Notes:

During a vacation to Kolkata we (husband-wife) took a trip to Mandarmani, a beach resort on the Bay of Bengal. I spotted these beautiful thumb-sized sea crabs busy feeding on wash-aways after a low tide. They made themselves sure that they dash to their holes with a minimum threat!

Thanks Malcolm, high time! I'd presumed there's a weeding system - 'old members go'! Ha! I was wrong! Good anyway!

Common problem and simple fix. Look in the address bar and remove the s from https, Project Noah is an http program and adding the s disables editing. Windows adds the s when it is opened by https programs such as e-mails so you will need to remove it each time. Our entire program needs a major update following recent changes to security systems so we are actively seeking a new developer to carry this out.

Yes, Malcolm it worked this time with your and Hema's guidance! Thanks.

Thanks Malcolm. This pn programme is simply cranky! Like now, it allows me only to visit (see), 'like' and comment - no other functions: edit, post, ID, etc. is working! There's no problem with my computer, I'm using one of the latest hp with Window 10 and Intel 5 gen with sufficient RAM and HD (2 TBs), running on a broad band. Thanks.

Crabs are not Reptiles, they are Arthropods, please correct your category so that this will reach the right people for ID.
