Anna J on the road:

It was very sad to leave the Monterey Bay area, but to my suprise, I caught another glimpse of our friendly cetaceans. It was a beautiful drive down Rt 1 and around Morro Bay we spotted dolphins in the surf!! I quickly pulled the car over, grabbed the camera and ran to the shore line for some photo ID. I couldn't get as close as we normally do in the Astirix (unless I decided to jump into the waves). But you never know, with Daniela or Shinae's careful eye, we might be able to identify these animals as our pals from Monterey!

In addition to the TUTRU, we also recorded MIRAN at Piedras Blancas and MENO at Morro Bay.

5 POINTS to the first past-team-member to leave a comment correctly identifying these marine mammal species with their species codes and common names!

No winners yet! Any volunteers out there in cyber space that can identify these marine mammals?

We'll let Sean, that master-spotter, announce the winner.
