Volunteer meeting

Hi all,
Tiffany suggested we'll have another volunteer meeting, so that she could meet everyone. We've got a few items on a tentative agenda:

  • Meeting Tiffany, and learning about the Center for Biological Diversity interest in our project
  • Updates about the Midpen population study, and Midpen's 1/13 board meeting
  • Additional newt studies we might need/ want to do
  • Working in pairs
  • A possible volunteer outing

  • Any other issues anyone would like to raise.

    After this Thursday (the day I give my last final exam), I am free any day/any time.

    i'm free any weekday after 4pm.

    Mon-Wed are not good for me. Any other day/time is fine.
    Other suggested topics:

    How do we get photos from Midpen study into iNat?
    Will they share their traffic data with us? Is it too tedious to collect traffic/activity data (cars, trucks, bicyclists, pedestrians)? I'm not sure we're using that data, so if it's tedious to collect, we might want to discontinue it.

    Regarding volunteer get together: I'd love to see you all, but I'm at high risk for Covid-19 (85% chance of dying if I catch it), so I'm staying away from people for now.

    I can do any day/time for the next 2 weeks.. after that it will be limited to evenings during the weekdays.

    Hi Tiffany! Welcome to the patrol.

    I'm a bit iffy by day until I hopefully make it through this week not getting called for jury duty. Evenings work much better in general for me anyway.

    @joescience1, I think there are two separate proposals: first to have a virtual meeting, and then during that meeting discuss a possible physical outing.

    Hi all!

    I'd like to send a doodle poll and eventually a zoom link for folks, so it would be great if folks could share their email. No need for everyone to share their email on this platform, but if you could all email me at tyap@biologicaldiversity.org and send me your name and iNat username that might be a great start! And yes, we're thinking a virtual meeting over zoom first, and then we can take it from there.

    Looking forward to meeting y'all! :)

    Hi all! Thanks to those who have sent me their emails! I'm still waiting on a few of you, so let me know if there's another way you prefer to be contacted.

    Not to get too excited, but it looks like there is a chance of rain this weekend, so I'm hopeful for that.

    Hope you're all having a nice week!
