Hey guys! I don't normally do friend Valentine wishes, but this timely find was too good to keep to myself! Hope everything is going well for everyone. So far, I have not been hit directly by any cyclones, and the political unrest in Madagascar has not affected the rural area where I live (other than that people won't let me travel alone because they are afraid that bandits will be emboldened by the governmental chaos and I am going to start sleeping with my machete in my tent with me just in case). Unfortunately, the son of someone in my field was shot and killed in the political protests in the capitol. As the embassy has been warning, I'm just staying away from the big cities and everything should be fine for me. Miss you guys!
p.s. The worst thing about the rainy season is the millions of wasps nests hidden in the foliage from knee height to face height (see pic)! But surprisingly, stings on the face do not hurt NEARLY as much as stings on the NECK! Damn! Stings on the neck hurt like HELL!
And here are a couple of pics of my favorite find so far. The boa was very patient for the half hour I handled him.
