Visiting the Keys for the holidays? Don't forget to visit DRC! (Swim spots should fill fast so book online soon!)

From Our Pod to Yours . . .

At DRC this morning you'd see: Tanner doing research; Delta playing w/a mangrove pod; Luna and her mom chasing minnows; Molly being weighed. Dolphins doing dolphin things!

As we decorate for the staff/volunteer holiday party, we wonder if visions of herring dance in dolphins' heads

It's a little brisk today, but the Florida Keys will warm up soon. How about a visit this weekend?

Merina & Calf!

Nothing like video of a cute baby, its mom and other dolphins to bring a smile to the day! Check out the footage of Merina and her calf. Tursi and her little one, as well as Theresa, also appear. For those who wonder what's happening when a mom pushes the baby around with her rostrum, that's one of the ways that moms "surf" their calves. It's a form of play and bonding. It can also be used as discipline if the little one is wandering off or getting into trouble. :-)
So sweet! We hope you enjoy it.

Video of Tursi and Calf

We know you love seeing the dolphins as much as we do, but not all of you have the chance to visit them in person right now. This footage of Tursi and her baby was filmed over the last week or so. We hope you enjoy watching them swim and play!
