Doplhin Watch results for Port Stephens have been completed.
A few residents in the Cove joined in the watch for 30 minutes from 9;00 am on the 6 May 2012 . Points for observations were provided by National Parks.No Dolphins were sighted at the time.
A total of 58 dolphjins were sighted in the area surveyed.Maquarie University record a consistent count of approximately 100 dolphins in the Port Stephens area. the National Parks survey augments the work being done by Universities.
For more details see the attached letter and graph. One of the problems is the declining number of observers reporting especially those in boats.
Thank you to all the volunteers. We may nave a few more next year.
