Yesterday was all about making up for lost time. Because we had a day off, we had to be sure to get plenty done. We did the entire "Big Grid". We divided into 2 two-man groups and 1 three-man group. I was a member of the three man group. We were the last to finish and made it back to camp around 3:45AM. Even though it was a long night, it was really cool. My partners and I were able to see a Puerto Rican Boa Constricter, which my professor has yet to see. He was eating a lizard, which is sad because I like lizards but that is how nature works. It was very exciting. I was also able to touch a land crab. It was an amazing night!
