I have absolutely no explanation for the guy who went through a surprising number of my images last night, tried to tell me that Carolina horsenettle is found in his location, and is not toxic (it is, though the ripe fruit is reportedly less so), and then “re-identified” (and in many cases, misidentified) my dragons and damsels…that were already tagged with the correct binomial and common name. Normally, I would think it was just excess enthusiasm, but….he’s in India. WTF?? What would motivate him to spend so much time identifying stuff that is already identified, and (more to the point) is found on the other side of the world? He’s a native of India, so it’s not like he’s an American who was homesick for the local fauna and flora. I was polite because I think his intent was helpful in nature, but….WTF??

P.S. Yay, me. I made Explore again, this time with my little hairstreak-spider-attack. Kind of a crappy shot, but the timing was damned good! 🙂

(Yes, I included even dropped shots because the 500 images chosen for Explore each day represent roughly 0.1% of the total images uploaded, so I’m content to simply get in, even if others “overtake” me. Hehe.)
