Today I walked with Seabird and heard all about her trip to Lisbon and Seville, then we had a party for the grad students with lunch and cake and a trivia game. There were two cakes, mixed berries and mango, so my coworker and I took a sliver of each. We sat with mostly the same people as last year, since our team had won trivia. This year the faculty member on our team said our team name should be Winners 2025, so of course we came in last, but we were laughing through the whole game. During the "two truths and a lie" segment, the question said a particular grad student had never broken a bone, so my coworker said, "We can take care of that," and we all laughed. Then two questions later, it was that my coworker had never broken a bone, so everyone said to the grad student, "There's your cue!"
In the afternoon I met with Famie to speak Irish, but none of the grad students could make it, so she and I chatted in English. She had made a ton of soda bread, so she gave me some to take home. Then I walked with Hardingfele. Not my most productive day, but I promise that I did do work in between all that.
Meanwhile, Travalon went back to the wood duck ponds again, and here is what he saw: wood ducks, mallards, a green heron, and a great blue heron.
