Ecologist- I got my M.S. in Environmental Science a year ago (although my research focus was more ecology-focused: temperature affinities of Eastern big-eared bat roosts in buildings).Also helped with studies on red knots and Townsend’s big-eared bat.
Although I’m primarily interested in being an ecologist, I LOVE taking photos, and am learning to experiment more with my camera. I use a FujiFilm Fine PixS700
