Summer Update

Before I head off to the field again, I figured I could do a quick update in pictures:

1) Amazing aquatic sciences conference and workshops in Santa Fe:



2) I enjoyed exploring the southwest a bit more after the meeting and workshop:


3) 10 days in the Tetons for an invasive species food web project in Kelly Warm Springs (yes, the bottom photo is a cichlid. And no, they are not supposed to be there!):


4) And now, back to into the field for a large rivers nutrient cycling project (photos coming soon!).

Yep, that just about covers it!  I love summers in Wyoming, and I can't wait to explore some new field sites over the next month and a half.
