Field Trip - Baylor Aquatic Research Center

Posted by Alex H.

Field trip time!

This past April, Dr. Romi Burks took those interested (mostly SU Animal Behavior Society folk) to see the Lake Waco Wetlands.

After meeting up with a grad student working on the BEAR (Baylor Experimental Aquatic Research), Dr. Burks showed us first hand the invertebrate community living in a natural central Texas wetlands.

Highlights of the trip were:

1) Ecological learning experience.

2) Seeing a garter snake in the water (couldn't get a picture, unfortunately).

3) Spending time with fellow ecology students.

4) Just some great time off from school.

Here are a few pictures:
