Arrival

I have arrived in Punta Santiago, Puerto Rico and am enjoing the hot and humid weather (and the relentless songs of coquís). Tomorrow I begin field research on Cayo Santiago, helping Joel, part of the Duke research team, with his research project on rhesus macaques. I'm living with Joel and Carrie, a rising graduate student, in a simple house no more than a minute walk from the beach. My room is smaller than a typical dorm at school, but I packed lightly so it isn't a problem.

I'm going to try something a bit different with this blog. Instead of focusing on written posts, I'm going to try and post a photo a day. Meaning this blog will mainly consist of monkey photos. Enjoy!
