We are excited to announce that we’re now indexing videos as well as images from Flickr. Videos uploaded to the EOL group in Flickr and tagged with a species name will now be featured in EOL species pages. Visit the Honeybee (Apis mellifera) page to see some recent video additions by Arthur Chapman and Valter Jacinto . Since the group began less than 6 months ago contributors have submitted over 13,000 photos and now over 200 videos which are shown in EOL species pages. Follow the instructions on our group homepage and learn how to submit and tag your photos and videos. We encourage everyone to check out the EOL Flickr group and start submitting photos and videos today!
