These are a combination of pictures taken about four-five years ago, when I went (briefly) on an Earthwatch trip to the Bahamas to help a scientific team look for dolphins, whales and other cetaceans. A few of them are mine, most of them aren't. You can tell mine in one of two ways; a) they will have the date in the right-hand bottom corner, and b), they will suck. Enjoy. (Clicking on them will make them 'uge.)

| The street where we lived. |
 |
| Our beach was exactly how you'd expect the Bahamas to look. That's our search boat in the background. |
 |
| Like I said. Exactly how you'd expect. |
 |
| That's our skiff; don't know as it had a name. It was substantially smaller than the whales. |
 |
| Skiff, and clouds. We picnicked at a sandbar one day, which I think is where this came from. |
 |
| Our first cetacean. A Disney cruise ship, way off in the distance. |
 |
| A bit closer. See how it dwarfs that island? The ship was MASSIVE. |
 |
| The island in question, closer up. |
 |
| Fish!! That may be me in the background. |
 |
| This is Eddie, assistant to the survey. A master of karate, and friendship to every one! |
 |
| No, seriously. He was a master of karate. |
 |
| DOL-FIN |
 |
| My half of our surveying crew. |
 |
| Our teenage liason bravely dove into whale feces! There she is, handing a sample to us on the boat. |
 |
| Chez Science. Also, dog. |
 |
| We went kayaking in what I think was a mangrove swamp. This is getting ready. |
 |
| Kitty! |
