Yaana is back to the pattern of the past few weeks, moving between the town and the mouth of the bay during the 8-hr night-time window during which her tag transmits.

Yaana continues milling at the mouth of the bay.

Yaana continues the movement pattern that typified her behavior for the weeks immediately following the tagging more than 4 months ago.

Yaana has covered a fairly long distance in a short period of time - 28 km (in a straight-line, not including milling at the mouth of the bay) in four hours, returning to the bay from offshore. It will be interesting to see from the tidal data Pablo is compiling whether these "extreme" movements correspond to strong tides. Pablo plans to return to Bahia San Blas on 20 July, and will operate a single boat (and digital camera) in search of tagged dolphins.
