Identify Anything in Nature
Lichens, mosses, tracks, feathers, shells, rocks — if you found it outdoors, Spotter can identify it.
About nature identification
The natural world doesn't sort itself neatly into "plants" and "animals." Spotter's Other category handles everything else — lichens, mosses, animal tracks, feathers, shells, corals, fossils, and more. Point, snap, and learn.
For a better identification
- For tracks, photograph the track with something for scale (a coin or ruler) and show the overall track pattern.
- For lichens and mosses, try to capture a close-up of the growth pattern and texture.
- For feathers, lay them on a clean background and photograph from above.
