    2. A very important protest; I’ve been following the story.

    3. Hope they succeed. Sadly a dead whale washed up on one of our beaches this week, a Bryde’s Whale. Disposing of the nasty smelling body trapped on jagged rocks in a holiday resort gave the Municipality a bit of a headache!

    4. Kate – Really – i had heard that it wasn’t really getting much coverage outside of Australia and New Zealand. Good to hear the rest of the world is finding out.

    Sam – always sad when that happens. We had a recent stranding and rescue of all whales involved that me and my camera missed :-(
