Closing in

My pollination experiment is finally drawing near and it's making me antsy! Here is the graphically-enhanced field layout. Out of over 300 plants we will be choosing 36 to observe for pollinators in two different locations. Before the experiment gets underway I need to make lists, check them twice and gather up many odds and ends for a successful day in the field. Bags and flags? Check. Labeled containers? Check. Vacuums? Check. Ice? Check. Video cameras? Big super-huge check. It's important that everything is accounted for and ready to go, because we will be in the field before first light, when everyone is at their crankiest.
