    Hi Carolyn, Thank you for your survey and for including this wonderful Dungeness information! I see that you’ve classified this as an “opportunistic observation”, which is still great, but if you did indeed complete a survey with the standard search time (20 person-minutes) just let me know and I’ll file it as a timed search. Timed reports are the most valuable for the dataset and can help your data go a bit further. Hope you had a great time out there on the beach! -Hannah
