The animals we see here....

The last week.5 have been a mix of things for the both of us, and instead of updating the specifics we will hit only the highlights - the critters of the woods.

I spent the last week in Kenting National Park doing my first fieldwork, and Crystal met me on my way home in Taitung. We ventured to Zhiben National Forest for a wee hike and some quality time with monkeys. Here is the result of a few night hikes, a rainy day hike and a chance encounter with Taiwan's macaques and birds.
