  1. A feast to the eye!
    Note that if you think it is worthwhile to share individual species separately, it would totally be cool to make different crops of the same photo, each highlighting a different species. I'll leave it to you to decide if this is worthwhile.

  2. Yes, I already did that in another case. For this one the second species is already introduced with a separate picture. I will keep it in mind :-) Posted 7 years ago
