More Underwater Exploration
Lizards... 
and crabs...
The picture below is of Alex's sonar do-dad-thing-a-ma-jig that measures how far a tag is. A tag is a small device researchers put on animals or humans that emits a small radio frequency which is detected by the sonar do-dad-thing-a-ma-jig. Today we tested the device by putting tags on Renata's butt and tracked her by boat as she scubaed (?) underwater for an hour or so. I just played around with the bubbles that came from their tanks and practiced a wee bit of deep diving without the scuba gear.




Here's Alex chasing a male stingray while questioning why the bloody heck he can't catch a male. I told him they like male grizzlies... introverted and don't want to be bothered. You can kind of see the ray as a small shadow in front of him.
