An Office Day
July 30, 2010 – 7:30 PM CDT
Today was mostly an office day, uploading data, taking care of paper work, and adding subtitles to a new Lily and Hope video for the Bear Center. The video shows events from the day of the separation on May 21 thru July 19. July 13 image of Lily and Hope (right) taken from the video.
The website where we view the research bear GPS locations is down today for scheduled maintenance, so we are in the dark about bear locations except to know that Lily and Hope are still together. How soon we have come to depend on those GPS readings!
The Lilypad Picnickers are approaching full force. The Bear Center had a wonderful day with the joyful picnickers and a surge of the general public due to a rainy day.
Thank you for all you do and your recent contributions.
