Our day off finally arrived on Saturday and we were all excited to explore the town of Bocas and it's beaches! Unfortunately, the weather had a different plan for us. We started the morning off by bearing the rain and going to explore a botanical garden that is down the street from STRI. The garden not only had native plants but also included plants from all over the world. The garden was beautiful even with the rain beating down on us.

As the rain and adventure filled day came to an end a couple of us went hunting for a Sloth. After about 15 minutes we managed to find one! He was hanging from a tree and as we shined the light on him he slowly moved his head to cover himself from the light. This was my first Sloth sighting here at STRI and it was everything I had hoped for! After watching him for a few minutes we left the Sloth alone so that he (or she) could do all of it's Sloth things in peace.

After yesterday's torrential rain we were hoping for sunshine. We didn't get sunshine but we also didn't get rain which was a win for me! The day started with time to work on our projects and soon after breakfast all the groups went out to collect more data. Mitchell and I went out to House Reef to continue collecting data on how fast urchins cover themselves. Tralee & Genevieve went our to STRI Point to continue their search for anemones and shrimp while Gabby & Vanessa continued their work with damsel fish at House Reef. Ella & Casey used this time to modify and perfect their project and worked off the STRI dock.

One of the most notable things we saw at Punta Caracol was the Elkhorn Coral. Elkhorn Coral is one of the main reef building corals of shallow fringing reefs. This coral was once abundant but has been affected by White-band disease and has unfortunately suffered mass mortality.
Time is flying by here in paradise and as we start our final week in Panama I'm looking forward to all the snorkeling still left to do and to learning all the things!
Hasta la proxima,
Natalie Contreras
