| 11th June 2006 Grandma Lohnes | Nice Pictures! - From: So Sorry! Becca, That was great to get another blog from you. Glad you have the wireless card now. That little Mountain Plover looks pretty cute, but how do you ever find those nests? I could not find the Plover in the one picture. Hope the job is going much more smoothly and that your next three weeks will go quickly. Love, Grandma |
| 23rd March 2006 Grandma Lohnes | Re: Thanks for the new Blog - From: Tiempo para salir Becca, We were waiting for your blog. The pictures were fun. Even the "fake" bird watching. We will definitely stay tuned for your blogs as you travel on. Blessings to you. Love, Grandma and Grandpa |
| 13th March 2006 Aunt Karla | Congratulations - From: Buen Noticias Wow! Becky, we are so proud of you. What an interesting life you are living. Mom and Dad told us more great news about Cornell! I have been loving your pictures and look forward to seeing more! Love, Aunt Karla |
| 10th March 2006 Grandma & Grandpa | Congratulations! - From: Buen Noticias Dear Becca, Congratulations on receiving the Fellowship at Cornell. We are so happy for you as we realize this is what your were hoping for. Your Dad called last night and he was so excited about your good news too. Sounds like a great deal and should keep you very busy for a few years! That was a scary story about getting lost in the forest. Glad you have a good strong voice and could get someone's attention to rescue you. We really didn't want to travel to Ecuador to find you in that deep dark forest, but we would have tried! We look forward to seeing some more pictures from Ecuador. Let us know when you are back in the "good Ole US of A". Love, Grandma & Grandpa |

Congratulations on getting your #1 choice for a spring/summer job. We will look forward to some blogs from Colorado. Tomate must be a lot of fun to watch. Sounds like you are keeping busy. Hope your paper goes together well. Love you, Grandma & Grandpa |
| 12th February 2006 Adrian | Tomate - From: Buen noticias, Tomate, y un gato salvaje Congratulations on Colorado, Becca! Any chance of lobbying for a larger cage for Tomate? Ze looks a bit cramped in there.* And I'm glad to hear that you're attracting potentailly dangerous animals to your living area with delcious baked goods. Espero que vas a encontrar muchas aves bonitas y interesantes mientras vives en el bosque . . . creo esos van a ser meses importantes en su vida. (Don't make fun! I haven't had a class in five years!) Keep sending pictures! * Neutral pronoun used in the interest of not imposing human gender norms on the cuddly woodland creature.** ** Kidding, of course. |
| 31st January 2006 Mom | Great Pictures! - From: Se llama el bosque nublado Wow! I love the very first picture of the cloud forest. Is that a view from the station? Where will you publish those papers? Ecuador or the USA? Keep the story and pictures coming. MOM |
| 30th January 2006 Aunt Carrie | miss you - From: Yanayacu Estacion I'm catching up on entries in the new year - how did your 'illness' come out? Sounds like all is well and is better than you hoped or expected. Send more pictures when you can; they really bring it home. Love you, Aunt C. |

| 25th January 2006 Mom | Tell me more! - From: Yanayacu Estacion Have you been to the preserve that borders Yanayacu? Are the any other ornithologists there? What's the story on the colorful columns in the dining area? What ARE you looking for in the tapes? When you write your paper will you publish it? If so, where? Seen any night jars yet? Keep it coming! MOM |
| 20th January 2006 Grandma Lohnes | Re: Great Blog - From: Yanayacu Estacion Becca, We really enjoyed your latest blog. The area looks so beautiful. We're surprised that the weather is that cool.

| 20th January 2006 dlohnes | Food in the Cloud Forest - From: Yanayacu Estacion What is your typical meal at Yanayacu? Is the coffee good? Can you get a picture of the microhydroelectric plant? What are you looking for in the tapes of the nest? Birding in our backyard has yielded lots of wild turkeys and juncos. |
| 19th January 2006 Aunt Karla | Greetings - From: Yanayacu Estacion Becca - I just re-read your journals. I love seeing all the pictures and hearing of your adventures! Take care! I look forward to seeing you when you get back home! Love, Karla |

| 8th January 2006 Mom | Great Pics! - From: Azúcar y Enfermedad Wonderful pictures, Rebecca! After seeing how they made that candy, I'm not sure that's the best thing to eat for a person with "an illness". Perhaps there's a reason it came back with a vengance? Keep us posted. I can't wait to hear about Harold and the rain forest. MOM |
| 8th January 2006 Dad | Nice Tiger - From: Azúcar y Enfermedad I guess we sometimes take for granted all the nice things we have in this country. That tiger looks really bad. Love Ya Dad |
| 8th January 2006 adrian | colour me green - From: Feliz Navidad Can there be two?? The more I read about these great adventures the greener I get. Maybe these little nudges will amount to a great big shove! I know I'll love it when I take the first step . Thx for the trip. |
| 2nd January 2006 Mom | Great Pictures - From: Más fotos Great Pictures Becca! I like the pics of the wildlife, but I also really like the pictures from your window or balcony, and the pics with the people you've met. The pictures remind me of "The Mortorcycle Diaries". You need to pick up some native garb, and you'll fit right in. XOX MOM |
| 2nd January 2006 Grandma & Grandpa | Great Pictures - From: ¡Aves, aves, aves! Becca, Your pictures are great. The market at Otavalo looks really interesting. The butterflies are beautiful. Keep them coming. The pictures, that is, not the butterflies. Enjoy and stay safe! Love, Grandma & Grandpa |
| 31st December 2005 Uncle David | Butterfly Farming Question - From: ¡Aves, aves, aves! When I was in Puerto Rico I saw a shop with artwork that was ~50 Monarch butterflies in formation. It was extremely cool. The literature said that they didn't kill the butterflies, but that they were raised on a butterfly farm and had died naturally. So is that the case? Keep up the blog this is great fun. |
| 26th December 2005 Aunt Karla | Feliz Navidad to you, too - From: Feliz Navidad Becky - What a great adventure! I love hearing about the differences in the foods, the way they are served, and the emphasis on veggies. Grandma and Grandpa L had Christmas dinner with us. We miss you and your family! Take care! Aunt Karla |
| 25th December 2005 Mom and Dad | Merry Christmas - From: Feliz Navidad Merry Christmas Becca! We're here at G'ma Downey's house and really miss you. The crowd has started to arrive so chaos should reign soon. So glad to hear you hooked up with another English speaking gringo. Now you'll have someone to share stories with. Feliz Navidad! Enjoy the day. Love, Mom and Dad |
| 25th December 2005 Uncle Rick | Merry Christmas FN - From: Feliz Navidad Merry Christmas Becky. I'm listening to Raffi's Christmas CD and thinking of singing those songs in the car with you kids in Christmas past. Love You. Uncle Rick |
| 25th December 2005 Uncle Rick | WOW - From: Feliz Navidad What a great adventure you are having. I wish I was there with you. I would love the food, the sights, the smells, not to mention getting away from the darn cold weather and snow. Love, Uncle Rick |
| 22nd December 2005 Mom | Tell me more! - From: ¡Estoy en Quito, Ecuador! Becca, Tell us more about the SA Explorer's Club. Is it a "clubhouse" like you might expect in NYC? Are there lodgings there? Remember to relax and enjoy yourself. Look on everything as an adventure. |

| 19th December 2005 Uncle Rick | Welcome to Quito - From: Getting Ready to Go Welcome to Quito favorite niece. Quito has always intrigued me. Look forward to hearing about your adventures. I found South America to be very beautiful and the people very friendly. Does the Amazon River start around there close? |
