The morning brought me a single session of about 30 minutes with Soca, Aunty V, Dot, Miss Merlin and Stormy. They were very interactive with one another and quite vocal – I recorded several whistles and clicks — the latter mostly directed at me it seemed!
It was one of the longer sessions and the underwater visibility was quite good at about 4 meters with minimal silt.
My afternoon was spent visiting a colleague at the College of the Bahamas, Radhika Makecha. I gave a lecture on dolphin communication and cognition to her introductory psychology class. It was fun to be able to share some of DCP’s research results with Bahamian students!
Tomorrow brings more data collection.
Until then,
Cheers
