Thanks, will do. Saw the app for the iPhone mentioned somewhere. Just logged on to the full site.

No problem. Not sure if you know, but after you receive a correct ID for an unknown spotting, it would be great if you could update it with the proper common and scientific names. Welcome to Project Noah!
