I've seen many strange things in the parking lot on my way into work over the years. Coffee mugs, keys, wallets, jackets… and now I can add a caribou leg to that list! You really never know what you're going to see around here.

    Today's journal is an audio entry. I've recorded some interesting sounds on my trip, and I'm going to share three of them with you here. Listen to each sound and try to identify what it is. I'll reveal the answers in tomorrow's entry.

    Lab Days

    The weather has turned colder and foggy. The lack of sunshine really decreases spider activity, so it looks as though we'll be spending some time in the lab. Amanda and Kiki have been busy identifying mites and other spider prey at the microscopes, and I'll have a chance to join up with some other groups around Toolik.
