Side Note
I met Meagan at the Whale Trust a few years ago. We discussed some of the Whale Trust projects and directions. We also talked about Whales Without Borders website ideas and future developments. Some of those ideas are woven into Whales Without Borders.

Then the following week, I was on a whale watch trip and noticed a whale research vessel studying whale behaviors.

Turns out, Meagan was the researcher aboard as divers studied Mom - Baby actions. They hailed us and needed to borrow some batteries for an instrument that had pooped out. I had some in my camera bag that fit. They were back to observing and taking data without much delay. These photos are from that day.
