Nice UI touch there, Project Noah.

Here's another interesting app: http://leafsnap.com/ Leaf snap, click a photo of a leaf and you get ID suggestions. Both apps are very cool!

Thanks Vanchi! Leafsnap is great and I enjoy using the app. When we launched the Project Noah app last year, this space was empty, but lots of new and cool apps/websites are out there now. Also check out iNaturalist and Scispy (by the discovery channel).
Needs poison ivy detector!
Big upvote on this one. I'll be using it. Instead of immediately freaking out when we see an insect (and calling an exterminator) perhaps this app will help us appreciate and respect them more?

I'm allowed to dream.

This highly interesting,smart and convincing app shows thousands of examples on nature’s living beings. Great app!!
