A huge congratulations goes to the MIPEP crew. As of (about) 5pm yesterday they completed the first bait drop. 100% of the Island has been covered. It's a little better than the 8% achieved last year. They were lucky to reach the milestone so early as we've had high winds and showers on all but two days over the past week and a half, making conditions for the helicopters rather untenable. Of course, this morning there were more than a few sore heads.
In other news, hopefully I'll be doing the second part of field training next week. For the moment, take a look at some of the things happening around station this week.

I'm still learning how to take photos in low light, if anyone has any pointers then let me know.
