I spent this week up in the Craigieburn Forest Park of the NZ Southern Alps helping to teach our Masters level Conservation Biology course at #LincolnUniversityNZ.
This is the first year we've run the course field trip at this location. We did so to better understand how nature is recovering after the big December 2024 fire in the area.
We were joined by retired restoration ecologist and pine expert Nick Ledgard, who spent much of his career working at the site. Nick now has a set of restoration trials set up to learn how to increase the native cover in the burnt area. The worry is that if left alone it will transition to a largely weed dominated vegetation.
@frankashwood joined us for the first days of the trip to help us monitor the soil invertebrates establishing in the burnt areas, which we're comparing with the unburnt areas.
@TimCurran was also with us for a day to better understand how the fire spread through the area, and why a lot of the mountain beech forest did not burn.

I've just returned from our three day annual Biodiversity Coast-to-Coast field trip with our second year ecology course at #LincolnUniversityNZ. We traversed NZ's South Island east to west and back again. The students surveyed birds, plants, invertebrates, and mushrooms in 10 m by 10 m plots at seven sites along the way. The students have the time to explore and document the myriad of species they find.
This is now the 12th year we've been running this field trip, at the same sites with the same survey methods. We use the data in a lab later in the course to describe and discuss the patterns and trends in biodiversity.
I now have a pile of photos to sort and upload to our course project on #iNaturalist, as do our students. Here's a quick taste of the trip (which was excellent fun).
Big thanks to Lincoln Uni. lecturers @GodsoeWilliam and @frankashwood for coming along for the first time. It was *terrific* having them there sharing their expertise with the course.

I've been up in the North Canterbury mountains this week, helping to teach our third-year undergraduate field ecology research course at #LincolnUniversityNZ. It was great fun, as always, helping students to carry out their first ecology research projects.
I'm collapsed back home, and very tired, after a week of long days outside then nights spent at the moth light. I've got a small mountain of photos to sort out and upload. That can wait until another day but here's a small taste.

Mid-June we spent 2 days on a #Fieldtrip to the #Maade #River in #Wilhelmshaven as part of our #METAscales project
Day 1: Installed two new #SEBA gauges to track water level & conductivity—crucial in our sluice-and-pumping-station-drained catchment. 🔧 🌊 🛠️
Day 2: Gained hands-on experience with our boats & ADCP for bathymetry surveys. 🚤💧🔍

This photo could be an album cover for some excellent but currently obscure alternative band.
It highlights another great thing about teaching field trips, and that is getting to know students better. There are such amazingly diverse and interesting personalities amongst young people today, much more so than I remember when I was young (pre-internet). Yet, they're all totally respectful of one another and work well together.

I loved field trips when I was a student and now it is such a treat to be able to teach them as a lecturer.
The very best way to learn about nature is to get out there and explore.
Here are some photos I just uploaded to Flickr from our field trip earlier this month, to the Boyle River Outdoor Education Centre in the Canterbury Southern Alps of #NZ.
This is part of my second year Field Ecology Methods course at #LincolnUniversityNZ.

A 15-year-old #female #black #teen was #fallingasleep during a #courtroom #fieldtrip. She ended up in #cuffs and #jail #coveralls because a #judge said he didn’t like her #attitude.
“You #fall #asleep in my #courtroom one more time, I’m gonna put you in back (holding cells), understood?”

Today's #goodnews story comes from #Burrillville, #RhodeIsland.
A routine #school #fieldtrip turned into a heroic #rescue when 12-year-old Alex Dupuis leapt into action to save a struggling #classmate. The quick-thinking seventh-grader didn't hesitate when he noticed a peer fighting to keep his head above water at Spring Lake Beach during the school's annual trip.

Had a fabulous #FieldTrip today with Long Now Boston folks. We toured the #DeerIsland wastewater treatment plant. Yes, Long Now Boston is a nerd club.
But it gives me hope: some really smart, thoughtful, and capable people are keeping our infrastructure going and planning for #ClimateChange--no matter what the other noise around is.
Great tour, take one if you get the chance. #BostonMA

Join us on Sunday, May 26 for a field trip to Parker Ranch! See link below for details - RSVP required.
This time of year is ideal for finding uncommon and rare species, as well as expected migrants that have not been around since last summer. Neotropic migrants such as Western Tanagers, Black-headed Grosbeaks, vireos, warblers, and flycatchers of many species are returning, and will be moving through our area during this time.

My son Joseph took 2nd place at the National History Day competition in Missouri a week ago with his solo performance "The Battle of Quebec".
Now he's raising money to travel to Washington D.C. to compete in nationals! Wanna order some yummy popcorn and help a boy have fun with history?

What a fabulous book by Chef JJ Johnson of FieldTrip restaurant in NYC―"The Simple Art of Rice".

Simple accomplishments for a sweltering, sluggish, stupidly hazy, and sickly smokey day:
Found the best damned grilled cheese sandwich with two strips of bacon & a couple of pickle chips in a crappy biker dive bar up north.
Picked up a couple pints of blueberries, white nectarines, some weird-ass heirloom string beans at Snow Goose Farms while navigating the tourists. #FieldTrip
Looking forward to the leaves changing soon up on #Chuckanut\
Time to continue melting...

"A lot of people refer to it as social justice. I call it social injustice in terms of the people that are being exposed to poor air quality," Cluster member and University of #Utah faculty member told students during a 2022 #FieldTrip to the #GreatSaltLake.
