Catherine Scott and I continue on our Honduran odyssey, finally making it out into the field to begin our work on Red-throated Caracaras. We are working in a medium-elevation pine forest, consisting of mainly Pinus oocarpa<\/em> and a couple oak species. This makes the surroundings seem very much like the foothills of the Rockies, except the species composition is way off!<\/p>\n

In these pine forests, one of the main defoliating species are fungus-rearing leafcutter ants!<\/p>\n

On some of the flowering plants, mantids lie in wait of unwary pollinators.<\/p>\n

Catherine Scott and Isidro Zuniga, our main Honduran collaborator, check out the cryptic mantid.<\/p><\/div>\n

Being weird gringos, and something of a novelty, we get great opportunities to chat with curious kids. Some of them are really enthusiastic\u00a0<\/span>about\u00a0birds and insects, and some can be persuaded to show us where to find the cool bugs.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\"IMG_4471\"<\/a><\/p>\n

We will keep searching out these cool bugs, as our Honduras fieldwork continues. Please stay tuned for more updates from the field, when and where we can fit them in.<\/p>\n
