Looks like it only happens for “Unknowns”.

Thanks a lot.

If you narrow the taxon filters to “birds” it will exclude things like frogs and snakes. Since the observation doesn’t have a label yet (Unknown), it just shows all top observed organisms nearby.

If you’re interested in visually similar (computer vision) suggestions, you have to change the “Source” from “Observations” to “Visually Similar”:

Thanks Cassi. My fault. I usually use the Android App for Identifications. Guess I have to get used to the site as fast as I can. Cheers
