Cetacean & Seabird Identification Workshops Biscay Dolphin Research Programme is delighted to announce the launch of 3 Cetacean & Seabird Identification Workshops on the P&O cruiseferry ‘Pride of Bilbao’. Biscay Dolphin Research Programme (BDRP) has been conducting whale, dolphin and seabird surveys of the English Channel and Bay of Biscay each month, year-round continuously since 1995. BDRP is an award-winning project within the newly established charity Marinelife that aims to further the conservation of whales, dolphins, seabirds and other marine life through scientific study and educational activities. Because of the work we have undertaken, the English Channel and the Bay of Biscay is now recognised as one of the most important areas in the world for whales and dolphins! Come and join some of the most experienced cetacean and seabird researchers in the UK for a fully interactive workshop where you will learn all the basic skills needed to observe and identify these fantastic animals at sea. This workshop is ideal for anyone with a general interest in marine wildlife, students studying Marine Biology or similar subjects, people who want some firsthand experience of field work as well any prospective Marine Mammal Observers (MMO’s). Workshop Dates: 19-22 June 2009 14-17 September 2009 23-26 September 2009 Cost is £135 per person based on two people sharing a 2 bunk inside cabin.
