Head out into field to continue baiting. Watch some ant wars on a few baits, and it’s great to see the field assistant get excited over the ants. Forget to put on sunscreen and by the end I feel dried out from the inside out. Come back to station and a researcher has been in town for the morning and brings back trout pâté. My knees go weak as real food hits my palate. Need a little nap to sleep off the sun. After a reviving shower organize some field samples and skim doctoral thesis on some insect work that was done here a few years ago. Cap off the day with an episode of “Planet Earth.”
