Since my encounter with the humpback whale on August 08, 2009, many people wanted to see the pictures. This is normal.

In January, I had informed my readers that I had been able to identify 19 dolphins thanks to the photo identification on the Tiputa pass.

In two parts, here are the first photos of dolphins obtained between July 2008 and January 2009, enabling us to identify them at sea, in the channel or in Rangiroa lagoon. All these photos have been kindly donated by divers, both enthusiasts and connoisseurs.

Here is the second part of the dolphins photographs on Rangiroa from TT13 to TT23

I wrote about this in October 2008 on my website, concerning my work with the year-round group of bottlenose dolphins (Tursiops truncatus) in Rangiroa atoll.

At the end of this year, I send you all my bibliography of cetaceans (in pdf format.)

My job as a guide allows me to be at sea every day and to offer our two activities to customers: drift snorkeling and dolphin watch.

I was thinking of doing my 3rd summer season in Canada but things have changed. I will only do it for a month or so before returning to Montreal.

As at the beginning of each month, I compare our dolphin sightings from last year with those from the same period. When I look at my statistics for June 2008...

In 1999, I helped scientist Delphine Legay with her project to photo-identify spinner dolphins (stenella longirostris) on Mauritius.
