I recall 1992 when you were only using the zodiac off Enderby Island. Best of luck in all your endeavors. Alan Shepard Former Earthwatch Volunteer PS - My family and I spend a great part of the year off the Bay of Fundy where we watch the whales (humpback, minke and fin mostly) from shore. I even had a minke swim over my head while scuba diving. Wow, it is amazing how you have progressed to the Whalesong 3. I recall 1992 when you were only using the zodiac off Enderby Island.

You may have seen the Chiriqui trip video at Ecad 2011. For the last ten years or so, we have been doing satellite tags, yielding pertinent data that we use in policy advocacy. There is a symposium every year for sea turtle conservation, 2011 saw it in San Diego, not sure where it will be in 2012; that is a great resource on turtle research, and may yield you experts on satellite telemetry. Check out our tour de turtles, it is a race between satellite tagged turtles. This is a popular advocacy tool that we use, and you might pioneer it with whales to great press.
