It's that time of year again. When the study is wrapping up, people are packing up and saying goodbye. This summer was fantastic! Our team did a great job on the boat all summer and we couldn't have done it without all of those fabulous volunteers. Thank you everyone, you helped make this summer incredibly memorable for each on of us on Moja.
We toughed out the long hours, foggy days, rain and rough waters all for those elusive poops. But...it was worth it! We reached our goal of 100 poops just in the nick of time. Go Moja!!
Some of the best memories of the summer:
Our first sample and our last sample
Tucker playing with his ball on King 5 news
J1 (aka Ruffles) breaching in the wake of a freighter
40 - 50 whales porpoising (swimming really fast) at Turn point
Transients completing a full body lunge in front of us and then finding the remains
Resting whales - too breath-taking for words
Any and all of our incredible visitors on Moja
Walking to Turn Pt with the amazing Soundwatch ladies
San Juan County Fair
Wonderful island friendships and beers at Haley's or Herb's
One fabulous crew
Thank you again to all of you fabulous people. This was a summer for the record books and Tucker and I truly appreciated all of your help and the new friendships we formed.
