There's a saying that perseverance pays off and last Sunday it certainly did. 7 visits and some 25+ hours sat freezing cold waiting for Short-eared owls to come out of their roost of which most were pretty pointless photo wise. All made totally worthwhile just before sunset!

Deborah A. Lapeyre @adam__moore (2) - In an XML/JSON file, how to encode RAiD? At article-level or more granular than that? with funding? Journals need to agree on where/how to present/store this info. JATS has a generic metadata (name/value) field, but JATS-specific. Globally?
