Comments & ID Thoughts

I know we all know what she is, but I noticed my state was not on the list where they have been seen. She has one nest that I can see of. So, I thought I would share My picture. I have two more, but im unsure how to share more than one.

Hi, there is an impressive backlog of unreviewed images here so I don’t know if yours is the first submission from your state but it is the first to be filed (apparently I’m the only active moderator at this time and I’ve been away for a few months!). Unfortunately images can’t be linked at this time and have to be submitted separately. Hopefully a future update will address this issue, there should be an update around the end of the year that gives members some more control over labeling/IDs.
