Week 2 was much like Week 1, focused on working in the museum during the week. This post will basically be photos with captions. Next week will be much more varied as it will include an overnight trip to an archaeological field site, a trip to a part of Kenya I've never been to (Baringo) where I'll be helping to facilitate a workshop for Kenyan high school biology teachers on evolution, and then finally - next Sunday - to the field site in central Kenya (Laikipia) where we'll be for the rest of our time in Kenya! Toby marveling at all of the trays of fossils I've studied so far - everything on the left side of this photo is basically the project I'm working on Contemplating a toy car with an elephant mandible and skull nearby... as one does Toby with a human family tree display Toby likes using my calipers to measure things Toby using my hand lens to look for marks on a fossil Jen showing Toby something on her phone during our lunch
