Lisa’s Farewell
Our most abundant species was the native redside shiner, with over 1600 making it upstream. The least common species was the invasive common carp, which we only caught 2 in the trap early in the summer.

Lisa’s Summer Update Pt 2
One night, we got over 300 bats from just one building! Continuing with the bat monitoring, I also helped Alexa, Malheur’s wildlife biologist, put up bat sensors that record their call around headquarters and Buena Vista, which were left out for four nights.
