It is really sad. My boss said that March was the greatest month. Well after living through most of it I would have to say I disagree. No adventures were had. The last owl survey we heard nothing. No owls, no coyotes, no nothing. I went to Naknek last Saturday and I can say that the ice on Bristol Bay is breaking up but nothing more. I have hiked in the woods and though it is pretty with all our snow nothing exciting happened. My work at the office is depressing as all I am doing is online trainings and finalizing reports. How I wish I were in the fields.
The coastal biologist has been on a near shore survey of the Katmai coast. She got back yesterday. I am so jealous. She has a sunburned face and great stories to tell. She saw all kinds of seabirds, and waterfowl. She said there were tons of sea otters with their newborn babies. They saw a whale. They saw sea lions and shorebirds. The saw a short ear owl in a nest. They saw a coyote and a moose. They saw a dead sea lion with wolf tracks all around it. And best of all they saw fresh bear tracks. Now being stuck in the office is really killing me. I want my season to start. I am tied of stall air and computer lighting. I want to see all my favorite bears. Where are you 284 when I need you!
