I also tried to be pretty general and keep it to what I think are pretty commonly-observed signs. Let me know what you think, but please keep in mind these should not be super granular, and that new ones can always be added, I want to get a basic set up first. Also, these are in no particular order, and I left out organism, thinking this should be used only if the evidence is something _other_ than the organism itself. **Type of Evidence** Scat (animalia) Track or Mark (animalia) Bone (vertebrata) Feather (Aves) Fur (Mammalia) Shell (mollusca) Nest (aves/insecta/mammalia/?) Fruit (plantae) Leaf (plantae) Burrow (mammalia/reptilia/amphibia/insecta/arachnida) Web (spiders/webspinners) Molt (arthropoda/reptilia) Call or Song (aves/insecta/reptilia/mammalia/amphibia) --- _[View the full topic](https://forum.inaturalist.org/t/lets-talk-annotations/627)._
