This research station is located on Key Biscayne and is providing interesting data on migration over the eastern Florida coast, an area with high human population density. And at the South Florida Birding Observatory we have been banding a few surprises over the past weeks.

Kooyman was there to work at McMurdo Station (a large American research station that we hear about throughout the book) as technical assistant on a science mission involving fish.
