Going to Class

The first day of our training session we sat as students, learning from our Project Investigator (PI) about the Tam Dao National Park region, its size, condition and issues, and the studying the butterflies can give them a quick indication of the imbalance in natural forest habitat. There is a lot to learn - and our PI knows quite a bit. The hardest part is learning about all the different species and how to identify them. I am recording the lecture on my laptop - that is why it is open on the table next to me.

Since there is no projector at the site, we all gathered around and looked at the screen on Lien's laptop - he had some great photos of butterflies we would meet - which we hope will help us identify them.
