Others may not.
To ID almost anything, take a photo with your cell phone. Then pull the photo up on your screen. Tap the third icon from left under the picture.
I use it to check my ID of insects and the like.
It has limits, and, like anything else, one of many tools. I use books and memory first. Just me.
Hope some of you enjoy this. Instant expert.

I prefer to use Inatrulist app on my Iphone. It is free and your input is used by Creative Commons to broaden it's database.

So what do the icon(s) look like to accomplish this?
(Just in case the third icon on my phone is different than the third icon on your phone.)
Also, when in camera mode or gallery view mode?
