We do not keep a collection of things here like a museum, but document what we do find when we are here. Two things of note this year were:
Tinamou eggs. These are the size of a "large" almost "extra large" chicken egg, and are a pretty blue. They were found on the property a couple days ago by Don McFarlane when he was in the jungly stuff up above the Program house. From the looks of them they were already found by some predator and eaten, since that does not really look like chicks pecked their way out of them.

And then there is this. It is apparently a McFarlane version of a machete, commonly called a "Newbie Wand." A very nice specimen of such a thing.
