Pieter had a great race this afternoon. 51 animals (all with spines) all identified correctly and within a short while of the race ending. (Looks like you are all getting quite good at this). So that puts Pieter in the lead, Rexon second and patrick in third. Just Marc to go now, and he has quite a number to beat.
Here are Pieter’s results, along with a Hotspot (used to be called ‘seekpoints’) for each sighting. A big thank you to Kathy and Sharon for making, collating, checking and sharing all the Hotspots. Enjoy …
