We will establish a series of online workshops, trainings, and seminars for young women. I did not actually go to Afghanistan for birding. In a barely disguised advertising plug, I will explain more at the end of this post (and probably in some other posts describing my travels in Afghanistan).

I recently participated in an “English Report Writing” training, sponsored of course by my employer, and this post will function as a test to see how well I was focussed on the lecture (instead of the sky outside the seminar room which may hold a black stork any day during spring migration). Well, that was the plan.

Right after getting the anchor set, what to my eyes should I see, but several P urple Martins flying above the boat! Right after a couple of quick photos, it was gone, off to more secluded locations.

I remember going to a health and safety seminar and struggling to identify potential pitfalls. I’m not sure if I already was claustrophobic , or if the circumstances merely traumatized me to the point I became one, right there and then. Maybe I’d trip on rocks walking to the cave? I think we caught perhaps three bats.
