Nearing the end of the day.

Amanda, one of the scientists who works here, gave a lengthy presentation about bats and the various species that belong to their family. Experiencing a mild migraine and falling asleep at the same time, I was still able to keep myself awake throughout the whole presentation and learn new things about the critters that I never knew about before. As hideous as they are (and I absolutely love animals) the things they do are wondrous and seeing them in action in the videos provided was interesting. To see how they play a crucial role in the forest of Costa Rica made me appreciate every single kind of animal in their own way. By dispersing seeds (some pollinate) from the fruits they digest, they allow certain plants to expand throughout the region and allow them to thrive in population. Small things are, for the most part, very important.
