Finally... the snakes

Green Vine Snake says hello

Alright, the internet was refusing to cooperate with my photo uploading when I got to yesterdays grand finale, the snakes! Both of these snakes are very close to my quarters- which my roommate had a better description of- Swiss Family Robinson style. I am thinking that I should just send you a link to hers as she is super funny, maybe when I have the address. For now I will just torment you with wildlife.

Today we trekked thru the jungle looking at sights for a study looking at bacteria on rocks in the rivers, had a lecture/ discussion regarding the microbiology work, Polymerase Chain Reaction here we come! The term just comes with a general sense of coolnees, in case I needed any more!

So evidentally there has been some close calls with actual poisonous here recently- a coral snake I think & a fleur de lance- life on the edge!

I have discovered that wildlife watching doesn't really go along with getting anywhere in a timely fashion, I didn't see as much today just as I didn't have as much time. I was feeling a little moody this am, didn't get enough sleep last night, but met some really cool people in my bldg & cheered up.

cheers for now, I'll continue the list later, I met another cool birder who can help me w/ ID.

luv mel
