the last 2 photos have GPS location on yet it does not show that the sighting has GPS evidence.
Is this another glitch?

I have the had the same problem with GPS. If my photos have GPS embedded then GPS evidence gets ticked but if I add the GPS via the sighting map then it shows up as no GPS evidence. Workaround for me has been to add any missing GPS co-ords to the metadata of the photo(s) before uploading. Hope that makes sense.

Thanks for trying but have no idea how to add them to the metadata of the photo.
I thought as the last 2 photos I added had GPS on them it would show as having the evidence as it has on other occasions. Also the GPS can be way off, I know that as some of them at Jerrabomberra Wetlands have been taken at cygnus hide and the GPS comes up as being in the middle of the road or way down at the car park so I just have to move it to the right spot which then takes the evidence off. I prefer to try and put them as close to where the bird/animal/insect/plant etc. are if possible which means moving the spot most of the time. Not really sure why it needs to be there as in all of our old sightings I have moved them to where it was so all the GPS evidence would be gone on here even though it was still on the photo. Oh well just have to live with it.
On another note I noticed that the animal etc. icon on the maps is still not working, I did send an email a couple of days ago about it, so not sure what else to do. Poor Aaron or whoever is doing this seems to fix one problem and then another one happens. As I notice the times have been fixed so appreciate all the hard work that you all do.
