Here’s a thread that describes how to use “Similar Observation Set” which I often use when I come across the same organism over time to observe it grow. I also use it when both taxa are in the same photo for instance fungi in dead a pine tree or a spider with prey. I make two observations. One for each and link them with the observation field.
