Kangaroo Island / Victor Harbor Dolphin Watch
Cetacean Conservation. Kangaroo Island / Victor Harbor Dolphin Watch - a volunteer community project in partnership with Whale and Dolphin Conservation
TOUR SURVEY Wed 6th July 2022It was a sunny but chilly day out on the water today ... but plenty of Cetaceans to be seen.
We first sighted a pod of Bottlenose Dolphins fishing, Tailslapping and chilling.
We also had the privledge of seeing a CC pair of Southern Right Whales slowly travelling East along the shoreline ... with some blowing and pec slapping sighted.
I loved seeing these beautiful giants but was also just equally pleased to see the reaction of the passengers, a lot were young children ... mostly seeing and learning about all our beautiful marine life and coastline for the first time.
Thanks to the BIG DUCK BOAT TOURS skipper Kirk and Johnathon for a fantastic trip
“Data for Purpose”
Making dolphin research effort count
We are busy planning our 12th National Science Week event focussing on our core business of Citizen Science dolphin research. We are highlighting and celebrating the wonderful volunteer effort and support over the years and the contributions of community data input, supplementing our boat-based and land-based survey effort.
Community volunteers are invited to participate in dolphin monitoring surveys (space permitting) and data analysis workshops on Kangaroo Island and in Victor Harbor.
Community members assist “feeding in” images and videos showing where the dolphins are in our region so we can fully recognise their important habitats in our waters.
If you have any images of dolphins on Kangaroo Island, Victor Harbor, the Fleurieu Region or South Australia generally, we would love to hear from you!
