Lets see been to Africa and back yet again, this time South Africa and Swaziland. Was collecting insects in the sugarcane fields among other things as part of some wildlife research projects being done by students at TAMU. My data looked pretty promising so the plan is go to back for a couple months this northern hemisphere summer (southern hemisphere winter). Should be a good time especially since its falconry season- if all goes to plan have a black spar in my future! Plus some hawk trapping for good times.
In other news the peregrine is doing well, hit his first duck a few days ago, been two years in the making. I have to say falcon stoops are always cool, but when its your own bird there is nothing like it in the world. Kes's season starts in 2 weeks starlings beware.
About Me
- therese
- All my favorite things begin with the letter B: baseball, beer (especially stouts) bird skinning (my skinned species list is more important than my life list), bridges, books (mostly fantasy), boats, beef, and the color blue. I love collecting and spend a fair amount of time collecting in fair off lands. Even if i'm not on a collecting trip I like to wander around- if I'm in one spot for more than a few days I start getting twitchy.
