And we’re bound for South Australia
October 29, 2009
Yes in just a little over two weeks I’ll be heading for my home town of Adelaide, South Australia for an extended break. It is scary the amount of things I have to get done in the meantime. This includes buying a car (the old one is on its last legs), marking a large number of vertebrate morphology exam scripts, the paleo paper challenge and….well you’ll find out soon enough.
So hopefully the future holds lots of blogging about the natural wonders of South Australia. Not many dinosaurs though, I’m afraid. However for those fans of the big scalies there will definately be something here before I go.
Hi, My name is Adam Yates. I'm an Australian palaeontologist living and working in Johannesburg, South Africa. I'm one of the lucky few who were able to turn a boyhood passion for dinosaurs into a career.

Speaking of big scalies, the great NOVA special on monitor lizards (featuring Eric Pianka) is freely available to watch here:

i’m excited as i’ll be visiting Hobart for the first time in 2 months.
have fun while you are at home, and can’t wait to see some posts on the area! (my big question are there any kookaburras around Adelaide? i have became obsessed with them after my trip to Sydney in Feb ;P)
