Robin was in the water for ~30 min.

The worst visibility of our season

The day was slow and overcast. We gathered a half hour of data but Robin could barely see the dolphins as the underwater visibility was ~3 m. The light was low due to the layers of clouds. The surface visibility was glare-ful and hampered accurate counts on dolphins within 5 m of Robin.
The behavior that Robin recorded was social with agitation among the males. Robin did not see many of the females today from the underwater view.
We are hoping for nice weather throughout and will introduce you to Team 2 as the week progresses.
Cheers
Kathleen, Robin & John
