Just arrived at the biological station where I will be spending the summer. Since this was the first field station that I visited during the OTS semester, it feels a little like coming home. The forest is beautiful, the food is delicious (a nice change from the La Selva kitchen), and the bungalow where I am staying is absolutely charming. So it will be a great summer.
This morning, I hiked most of the trails with Anna, another PhD candidate who works with the same adviser as Chris. We looked for fallen fruits to see what is available this time of year and checked out the 2 hectare study plot. That was a great introduction to the forest. Over the next few days I will be doing some chores for Chris, tagging along with other researchers to see their projects, and brainstorming ideas for my own.
