I have finally landed a job!
Montana Fish, Wildlife, and Parks has decided to hire me as one of their Avian Flu surveillance technicians... I will be spending time traveling between Bozeman, Great Falls, and Choteau gathering data from wetland birds that travel the Pacific Flyway. This will be a great chance for me to get some hands on experience with birds. I can't wait for the new challenge to begin... It is a seasonal position.. I can't just go out and get a full time job.. That wouldn't be me... I'll be working until January collecting both live and dead samples. Here is the FWP web site that has all the info about the project, and some great information about avian flu...

I start in Bozeman on Tuesday to get my main paperwork done, and then it'll be off to the races for a few months. I have a feeling it will be a little crazy in the beginning, as they are still trying to see how this will all work.. It is a large scale National and State interagency project.
Should be fun....
