Research reports Juniper Plant Identifying We are trying to identify all the plants on the Massabesic Middle School campus in East Waterboro Maine. We have went outside a few times and I have found a plant. The plant was called Juniper and I have to submit it this way. My plant is not on vital signs so this is the only way I can submit. 2011-01-24 4CH12 0
Posters "Superstar" art! Calling all artists! Vital Signs species expert "Superstar" is a scientist by day and artist by night. Check out his recent painting of a brittle star. It's quite super. While this painting is for inspiration, he promises more detailed and technical paintings for ID purposes in the future. Check it out, and tell our Superstar what you think of his hidden talent! 2011-01-24 gmri 0
Posters An expert's sketch book Vital Signs species expert "razorbill" always keeps a sketch book around when he's out in the field. Here's a peek at what this scientist-artist was carefully observing while doing seabird colony research with Maine Audubon. Check out his art, and let him know what you think. Better yet, post your own sketches of what you see while out looking for species! 2011-01-24 gmri 0
Science Notebooks Field work sketches When I work in the field, I always bring my sketch book with me. Taking the time to draw something really makes me remember it well--much better than a photograph. I've attached a few examples here, and I'll try to post more later on. One is a puffin from Seal Island National Wildlife Refuge, near Matinicus, ME. The other two are scenes from Newfoundland. One shows a minke whale (which we also have in Maine) surfacing in St. John's Harbour, and the other is just a nice scene from Bonne Bay. 2011-01-25 razorbill 0
