S.P. queried the Flickr database. C.U.U. provided the taxonomic backbone for the analyses. T.S. assembled the master photographic database, standardized the taxonomy of contributed databases and carried out statistical analyses. T.S. supervised the four Field Museum volunteers who assisted in data collection. N.C.A.P. and T.S. wrote the paper. T.S. prepared Fig. 1a. N.C.A.P. prepared Fig. 1b. T.S. prepared the Supplementary Tables. All authors discussed the results and implications of the analyses, commented on the manuscript at all stages and contributed revisions.
