The Pinnacle Post












Merry Christmas! I'm sorry it has taken me so long to update the blog! I have been busy learning how to capture and band the birds. Life on the island is very nice so far. The weather is warm and breezy and the water a beautiful blue. The first few days here we did Laysan Albatross sweeps, which means we have to record the band number of every Laysan Albatross on the island and band those without bands. Christmas eve we took the boat out and went to other islands in the French Frigate Shoals such as Trig, East, and la Perouse. We went snorkeling near trig and saw lots of fish and a white tip shark. We have a Christmas tree decorated and had a spam turkey (spurkey) for dinner. I hope everyone had a Merry Christmas!
