        Thanks! East Africa had been a glaring gap on my world map for a long time! It didn't go as well as I could have hoped overall, especially since the coast was a bit of a let down on several fronts. But a great introduction to the region nonetheless, and a reminder that there are really cool critters outside of the Neotropics haha. I really want to make another trip to Africa happen next year...

          To have so much geographic coverage allowing you to start talking about gaps is a good position to be in! Posted 2 years ago
