A small tip on the species system: I see you requested the manual creation of a species for this photo. You should only use this when the species cannot be found automatically using the search field. In this case it was not needed, but I see you already figured that out :)
As a 2nd tip: using the "Edit details" button below a photo, you can give it a meaningful title and description. Posted 11 years ago
