For reasons unbeknown to me, I have always loved dolphins. As a kid I had a pair of gold dolphin earrings I always wore, I had a
dolphin Barbie toy that I loved and on a family vacation to Hawaii I got to swim with them, which was pretty much a dream come true for me. So when my friend Ben, who's an oceanography major, asked if I wanted to tag along to a dolphin research session he was helping with last week I happily agreed.

| Autumn day in Australia |

| Mornington Beach, Melbourne |

| Prime dolphin-spotting location! |

| Strolling on the beach |
 |
| The volunteers, hard at work |
 |
| Ben and binoculars |
 |
| Not a bad end to the day. |
They only saw one dolphin all day, which of course I missed when I took a break to walk along the beach. Still, a sunny day spent by the sea, binoculars in hand, helping search for one of my favourite animals... it could be worse.
