iNaturalist vs eBird

[dannynelson94]

That’s a really good point. Just consider the amount of times bird IDs, even with a photo, have to be corrected on iNat. On ebird there is no possibility of correction when there are no photos and nobody will ever know if misidentification occurred. ebird generally does have more birders who are already great at identifying birds, but even they can make a mistake based upon the glimpse of a bird and if someone makes a repeated identification mistake it can go undetected, whereas on iNaturalist the birder will easily be corrected and hopefully not make the mistake again.
