this has been one of those hectic weeks - good interspersed with the tedious and stressful. had friends from georgia visiting for a few days which was lots of fun. got them out in the sheep yards which they appeared to enjoy way too much. few late nights which lead to non-functioning later in the week. spent wednesday in at milford trying to placate some fishermen whose new cars and boats are being detroyed by 20 juvenile keas. as a general rule, fishermen tend to be somewhat anti-doc, so it was a bit of a pr nightmare, not helped by the fact that i didn't actually have any helpful suggestions for what they could do. this has escalated to the point where i had to call the cops today because of reports that someone was trying to shoot some of the birds!! looks like we might end up having to relocate the birds somewhere else which could be interesting as i will be the sole member of the bio team in the office next and bugger if i know how i will catch 20 keas by myself. fun and games.
on the bright side, my new camera lense arrived. haven't had a chance to try it out properly yet but will post pics when i do :o)
