Microcarbo melanoleucos was missing from the dropdown list under "Colonial nesters" where it is usually situated. I searched up the species in the system as I know it is still in the system and there have been many recent sightings. Somehow it has made its way into the waterfowl category (I am unaware that anyone moved it). I tried to fix this by editing the species and category but can't see how to move it. Help please admins @michaelb @AaronClausen

Hi Luke
I've successfully moved Microcarbo melanoleucos back into "Colonial nesters". It is now in the field guide & dropdown for Colonial nesters.
