Getting Started

I arrived on Midway last night about 8:30 and immediately out of the plane was greeted by friends from my past trips and hundreds of Bonin's Petrels in the air. Welcome back. This morning we had our orientation that all new arrivals receive and then had a short tour of the island. This afternoon we actually got to work. I had a pretty good idea of the protocol we would follow but like any new skill, knowing how to do it and being able to do it quickly are 2 different things. I'm sure speed will come with practice. Today was a beautiful day in the upper 70's with clear skies and very little wind. I hope we have more like it. A full day of work tomorrow so we are jumping right in.
