January 1, 2010Start of the 2010 Field Season
And the end of the decade… This is Uyen in the field on 12/31/09. Uyen, Erin and Cory came out to Deep Canyon to scout out Costa’s Hummingbirds and (drumroll please) Black-Throated Sparrows. Cory has decided to switch species for her master’s research, so Team Hummingbird will now be Team Extreme (since we are going to stick with desert species). I am (very happily) based at Deep Canyon for the remainder of my sabbatical year, mainly writing, but helping out with fieldwork as needed.
