This week began our 2-week winter #waterquality monitoring season. We're thankful for our partners at the Chautauqua National Wildlife Refuge and use of their airboat while ours is in the shop. Ice thickness on Tuesday was still around 8 inches in most places, though quickly thawing. #UMRR

Fish telemetry folks: Anyone have any HR2 Innovasea receivers sitting on a shelf that we could borrow for a few months for a pond study? Ideally, we could use 8, but can get by with less.
Thanks!
