Trey Schwerdtfeger:Naval Architecture, Week one
I have made it to Mystic CT and am just starting to get my feet wet so to say. It is a beautiful location in between the town of Groton and Stonington. It is a quaint little town that reminds me a lot of Telluride. Other than the beautiful location, I get to work at a […]

Mercedes Martinez – Forensic Entomology – “You Go, Squirrel!” – Decomposition Day
7/5/19 – Wake up. Stop alarm. Squirrels. This morning, I walked down to the squirrels, half awake, as usual. However, as soon as I got to the site, I was greeted by a vulture. It startled me so bad that I gasped out loud. I’m sure the vulture would’ve gasped if it had the ability […]

Mercedes Martinez – Forensic Entomology – “They Went Buck Wild” – Deer 82/37 Returns!
7/4/19 – Before I even walked into the kitchen this morning, I was out by the site collecting data on Squirrel’s A and B. Surprisingly, there were no bugs in sight – not even on B. I was confused, but maybe B had gotten too cold during the night, which would deter insects from laying […]
