Thanks for following us on the blog and for the comments--we'll share those with the students. We had a great day today out in the field learning about predation rates on caterpillars--real ecology research for the students! I didn't have that experience until college and grad school--an opportunity of a lifetime! The students have done a great job making observations of things they see along the way and in collecting the data. It's an incredible experience to be on a research station working alongside the researchers. They are showing us lots of great relationships between the organisms and are bringing the forest to life for us.
For those of you viewing pix, I tried to add helpful captions to as many as possible (and continuing to force the flash--good advice Mr. Krejsa!).
More adventures to come tonight and tomorrow...off to dinner (the food has been really good!)

Your photos are FANTASTIC, whatever you are doing (with or without flash)!!! Thank you !
The photos are great but could I make another suggestion? I know that this is a "parent thing" but blogs of these types often have at least one pic a day of each kid, in some format (single, group, working, whatever). Us parents LOVE to see our kids doing things - it reinforces our confidence that they are still alive and having fun! Don't get me wrong - the wildlive is outstanding, but maybe humor us (?)...;) Also, a shout out to a real turtle-lover in the group - I saved a 15 inch painted from sure death on Kruger today. See...we have really wild animals here too...and wild drivers!
I'll second the brave comment that Diane put forth - yes, it's a parent thing, but honestly, I do look for photos of my child, and when I see them, it makes me feel better.
So, a few more photos with kids in them would be nice, but please, any and all photos are very much appreciated! Thank you for all that you are doing with our children.
