I knew I had a few doubts on challenge #37, but I was hoping to have at least 50% right. Shazz111, you have nothing to feel bad about! I only got 4/10! :cry:

I shouldn't even enter for the Ducklings! :redface:

Can't wait for the answers tomorrow! :wink:

7/10 for me as well for #37. :hmz:

I'm sure #1 is wrong, but can't for the life of me identify where I went wrong for the other IDs. :wall:

I'm sure it is tough Chirinda! Just the fact that Sky said the 'mites should try it without using any books! Unfortunately time is a bit tight for me at the moment, but I will definitely try the Ducklings as well next year! :lol:

You have done very well Dave! :thumbs_up:

I'm sure your score will be much better Sharifa!

I can't wait for Adrianp to post the answers! :doh:

I hope MattAxell will remember to put up challenge #38 today! Maybe I should remind him, just to be on the safe side.

Hi everyone, here is challenge number 38.
Some of the pictures aren't of the best quality, but in all of them there is enough to make out the ID.
I hope you all enjoy it

I'm looking forward to receiving all your answers. Good luck :thumbs_up:
