Tracy,

Is someone going to go through the site and correct all of the mistakes 
and ensure that the birds and animals displayed are labeled correctly? I 
just skimmed through a couple of pages to see what's there and 
immediately found on page 8 Northern Fulmars identified as Glaucous 
Gulls. I only looked at less than 1/2 dozen pages and maybe a dozen 
photos when I found this error.
