CRFS - Photo Blog Day 6: A Study of Biodiversity


Carly writes her group's questions about biodiversity.


Ilan, Ashwin, and Henry work on their questions.


Jerson, our guide for the day, shows us a centipede that someone spotted.


We got to climb up a tower above the tree line that had amazing views. 


Izzie, Destiny, and Andrew enjoy the hike through the Santa Elena reserve. 


Sydney and Kayley enjoy some delicious gluten-free brownies that one of our guides made for us.


Eleanor enjoys hiking through the gorgeous cloud forest. 


Andrew and Ilan attempt (unsuccessfully) to lighten their hair with lemon juice. 


Henry feeds the goats at Cafe Monteverde. 




Some of the groups present their findings on biodiversity in the Santa Elena reserve versus Cafe de Monteverde. 


Sydney, Izzie, and Destiny had a great day at Cafe de Monteverde. 


Everyone enjoys their ice cream (made with local milk!) after the long day.

     I think that this day relates to Activity and Learning Outcome 6: Demonstrate engagement with issues of global significance. Biodiversity or lack thereof is very important in every environment. Our hike and project in the afternoon showed us how hard but how important it is to define and study biodiversity in different communities.
