The Fitzpatrick Lab, and family, gathered out at the “range area” to watch the annular solar eclipse. Eerie and other-wordly, we have our calendars marked for April 2024 when we are very near the path of totality! — 10/06/2023
The Fitzpatrick Lab hosted Dai Shizuka for a visit to EEB. We took Dai for a walk at the range area and saw a cottonmouth. The dyed in the wool herpetologist among us was particularly happy about that. Thanks for visiting us and for a great seminar, Dai! — 09/11/2023
In preparation to send Elizabeth George off to her new job in the Carter Lab at The Ohio State University, we gathered for some bowling! Fitzpatrick Lab trivia: Austen has been a serious bowler most of his life. He tolerated some non-serious bowling and was generous with his tutorials! — 07/02/2023

Lab road trip to Southwestern Research Station. As the lab works on launching studies of female ornamentation in lizards, we all took a road trip to the Southwestern Research Station to meet up with collaborator Stacey Weiss and to see some Sceloporus virgatus in the flesh! We made the hard core decision to do the drive from College Station to SWRS in one day, which we don’t recommend! But the chiricahuas do not disappoint. — 07/2022
