Turtles don't like rain…sounds silly, but its true…ok so they don’t like the cold and usually rain brings colder weather... So there haven’t been any turtles in two days. We still have to check just in case, not an easy task this morning. It was raining so hard this morning that I couldn’t see the road! Scary! So we turned around and slept in, yay! We went our later though. We also went to Professor B’s house for dinner and turtle talk. (I’m just beginning to realize how many cutesy things you can add to turtle, turtle trackers, turtle talk etc.) We have some big things planned like talks and boat based tracking coming up, I’m so excited for it! We had a really nice dinner and talk with her and her family (and play with their adorable dogs!) On an completely unrelated note, I got my Coral Reef Ecology class approved! It’s been an uphill trek the entire way, but it all paid off, thank goodness. So…that's all from me, there really hasn’t been much going on for the past 2 days, I’m till wiped out though, and its freezing up here! “summer” up in Cape Cod is unpredictable at the best of times. I forgot this little tidbit and didn’t bring any blankets up, oops. I’ll go looking for some tomorrow!
Turtle tally: 0 (I blame Mother Nature)
PS- I posted pics on Facebook under “A Day at the Office”
That reminds me of the camilleon (I don't know how to spell and neither does spell check.) we found out on our night time game count. Apparently, camelions turn white at night and so they shine in a spot light. Cat picked it up off the tree and the poor thing was so cold that it wouldn't leave her hand! She ended up having to leave it on the ground cuz it was so cold, it couldn't climb!
