The holidays are finally over, now more travelling

I spent my Christmas running around Pilanesberg Game Reserve chasing elephants in an Audi...not a bad way to spend the break I guess. I haven't had great internet service since I've been back, so I've been slow getting pictures on Flickr. The completely empty building has, however, made work more efficient and I've managed to get a long ways on a couple of manuscripts.

Andrew and I leave early next week for Lekgalameetse Nature Reserve to look for highly endangered blue swallows. Lekgalameetse is apparently in a beautiful mountainous area and will definitely be unlike any of the other places I've visited in southern Africa. Poland still looks like it will happen at the end of the month, but we have to work out some funding issues before I can make definite plans.
