Hi Ronald and Amissa, That's a great idea for a mission. I'll gladly join and add my spottings! Would you include chrysalis and pupa's to this mission as well?
Ronald and Amissa
Hey I've created a spotting called "Eggs of the World." I'd really appreciate if you contributed this photo (along with all your other great egg spottings) to the mission. Thanks Cindy! Eggs of the World - http://www.projectnoah.org/missions/8022274
