      I’m not going to lie, it’s not always fascinating! There are days when it’s really exciting and there’s a lot going on, and days when all they seem to do is sleep. You’re always busy though, we record the behaviour and sounds constantly so it’s not just watching them. We are also moving for a lot of that time so it keeps you active. Field work is not for everyone, but if you can manage to work at school for 6 hours a day you’d probably be ok in the field 🙂

      Really glad that you find the work interesting!
