Today began with emails and website and manuscript reviews. It was very productive, but was interrupted by a surprise dolphin trip – oh, darn! We left the harbor soon after 1600 and kept our eyes on the sea, looking for that telltale splash or dorsal fin breaking the surface. We were not disappointed and saw several different groups of dolphins. They were fairly scattered and some appeared to be playing while others were feeding. We had a very nice 15 minute swim with three youngsters, including Niecey’s calf (#92). It is looking more and more like #92 is independent from mom! From the boat, we think we saw Niecey (#48), but we definitely saw Romeo (#10), Lil’ Jess (#35), Tilly (#87) and un-named #84. There were two very young calves that gave all the boat passengers a great show, swimming and leaping all about! It was a great afternoon!
Until next time,
Kel
