What is The Dolphin Pod?
What the heck is a Podcast? Podcasts are audio and video files that you can download to your computer and listen to whenever you want. The name 'podcast' is a bit misleading – you do not need an iPod to listen to a podcast; anyone with a computer and an internet connection can download podcasts. Podcasts often sound a lot like a traditional radio broadcasts, but style and content vary depending on the subject matter. For instance; NPR offers podcasts of their popular radio programs, MIT provides podcasts of lectures for undergraduate classes.
VIDEO: Kathleen discusses her research

An hour and a half in the water for data collection!
I was able to follow not too closely today because the visibility was still more than 7 m and clear. This allowed me to watch some neat behaviors, of course when Ken was not filling the viewfinder with his body or face! About 20 min into the first session, I was following Bailey and Cedena with Paya, Alita and Anthony all in view, too. Over a shallow (1.5 m) sand patch, Bailey just dropped to the sand and went prone on her belly.
A brief, strong downpour drenched the Key at 4:30 AM.
The squall promised to have stirred up the particulate likely leaving even less visibility. The morning began early again, but with a bit of trepidation. Often the rain will cause the visibility to worsen. But, I was pleasantly surprised upon entry to have GREAT visibility – more than 7 meters with hardly any particulate. And, I entered to Cedena, Paya and Bailey near to me … with Ken not far away. I could get a full view of interactions and behavior without being right on top of the dolphins. It was a wonderful session.
