Aloha!
I'm in Honolulu this week attending the Hawaii Conservation Conference, which just ended today. I met a lot of good people and saw some really inspiring talks on invasive species control and habitat restoration.
Last week, my friend Susan and I went to Molokai to collect bark lice and plants. The folks at The Nature Conservancy and Kalaupapa National Historical Park were incredibly helpful and friendly and our trip was a big success.
The photo above is Susan at the Kamakou Boardwalk on Molokai.
Memorial to Father Damien in Kalaupapa.
Tomorrow I'll take a tour of the marine biology lab on Coconut Island, the original Gilligan's Island! How long is the tour? Three hours!
(Should I be skeptical..?)
Then on Sunday, we'll head to the Big Island for a week of collecting at Hawaii Volcanoes National Park and other spots.
