Update from our snow leopard volunteer project to the Tien Shan mountains of Kyrgyzstan
We’re in a muggy and rainy Bishkek. In fact, there’s been lots of rain and snow in the last few months. We’ll have to see for ourselves what this means in terms of access to our study site and where we’ll place base camp. More news on this at the end of the week.
For now, it’s the usual madness of getting equipment and paperwork ready, shopping, meetings, ticking boxes. Scientist Emil is here to help, Lukas also, former staff member and Bishkek resident Amadeus and NABU staff too.
We’re doing our thing and I hope you are too. I’ll be back with updates from the field on Saturday or Sunday evening, when we return to Bishkek.
