The students and faculty of Field Biology, Summer Trimester 2011,

Dr. Thomas Rauch Frank Beilmann Haley Bryant

Courtney Daley Jennifer Farmer Jillian Ferrell

Amy Ford Jessie Martin Rendon Martin

Kayla Ross Whit Sanguinetti Katy Scott

Laila Younes Nafiyah Younes

would like to thank the manager of Leroy Percy State Park, Betty Bennett, for her hospitality,

kindness, and generosity and the manager of Tishomingo State Park, Bill Brekeen, for his help

and overwhelming support of our Field Biology class. The 2011 Field Biology class would also

like to thank Ms. Heather Sullivan and Ms. Margaret Howell for helping us identify numerous

species, and Mr. Bob Gresham for allowing us to explore on his property. In addition, the

students would like to extend a HUGE thank you to our beloved professor, Dr. Thomas Rauch

(Rauchfiki).

This booklet was made by the students of the 2011 Field Biology class and is not sponsored

by William Carey University (i.e. it is not used for the purpose of keying organisms). All

collections were done in and around Leroy Percy State Park in the Mississippi Delta, in and

around Tishomingo State Park in Mississippi, and right over the Alabama border. Various means

were used to identify animals including bird calls and tracks, as well as many species

identification books. We, the 2011 Field biology students, fully enjoyed our field biology

experience. We hope that this booklet will give you a glimpse into all that we were able to learn,

as well as all the fun times we shared.
