Back In Malawi…

Angelena — Tue, 29 Aug 2023 21:13:46 +0000

Going back to Malawi, even briefly, has been layered. I was asked to return to train the new research assistant for the bat team and at the same time offered the opportunity to take over the whole programme. Some places hold a version of you that never quite leaves.

We also had a braai night on Sunday night, but sadly this will be the last for Tom as he is going back to the UK, due to all this crazy virus stuff going on... We are going to be a musketeer down in the bat team.

Daniel and Bridget arrived this week from the Bat Conservation and Research Unit in the UK for a scoping trip with African Bat Conservation. I was super excited to have them hear as I was working with them both in England!
