We’re slowly reaching that point in the season where my head is swimming. New facts, new language, new people and ever new sightings. If my routine is brought slightly out I run the risk of forgetting things. I keep reminding myself pre-tour are my keys where they need to be ? are my sunglasses where they need to be ? Is the camera, the boat model, the species books, the hyrodphone where they all need to be ? But when we head out on tour and it all slows down. No matter what running through my head I realise that no matter what the Common Dolphins (Delphinus delphis) are where they need to be, the bottlenose (Tursiops truncatus) are where they need to be and the Corys (Calonectris borealis) are where they need to be. Long may things continue to be where they need to be.
