Description of problem:
If you go to the species map for hummingbirds you will see that there are 3 observations outside of the Americas, two of them are random bugs, the other is an incorrect id. Not sure if this is just for hummingbirds. See screenshots.

there’s no bug here. if you don’t agree with the IDs of the outliers, just go in and add your own ID to correct those observations, which in turn will correct the map.

Thanks!

Not showing the glitch anymore!

There are often weird outliers - far from the expected range - for almost any taxon. They might be correctly identified, and have the correct location, but frequently they are not and do not.
