The last day. Had an eggy tortilla for breakfast, rice and Quakers.
Then we speedily walked back to our plot and finished the last three
subsections. We did two transects noting
the trees with smaller diameters. I had the masking tape again and labelled the
species number. Louis then went back across the plot identifying herbs species
that were missed the first time. We had two eggs and rice for lunch. Then we
took some peat cores. I labelled some sample bags and we collected top soil to
take back for nutrient analyses. We then walked back pretty fast and had more
eggs for dinner. In total today I would say I had about five eggs maybe even
six! Why change the egg tradition on the last day! I am sad the field work
experience is ending. It has been such an adventure. I have utterly loved it.
At times it has been hard but I enjoy a good challenge - it makes the
experience more rewarding and fun.
