Not a spoof of "Call of the Wild" (though the name may be), Cal of the Wild will follow the short journey of one mountain hopping, bird watching, field technician. For roughly two months I, Cal of the Wild, will attempt to document my experiences through a written and photo journal style blog. My hopes are that the blog will allow friends, family, and stalking strangers to see the following:
A- What exactly it is that I'm doing in the woods for so long.
B- The score is still Cal of the Wild -1 / Ominous wilderness -0.
B- The score is still Cal of the Wild -1 / Ominous wilderness -0.
C- That I was born to do this.
And, maybe even will encourage some conservation type education and love in the process. But hey, let's not have too many expectations.

A bit about the job. I will be working for a non-profit (which shall remain nameless for the time being) that will be sending myself and a number of other field technicians into the mountainous regions of the North Eastern US for approximately two months. During this time we will be working to survey populations of high elevation songbirds. These include ten target species of birds and one target mammalian species.
The journey begins May 26th. So follow along. I double dog dare you.
