The Monterey Bay Chapter of the American Cetacean Society normally meets
at 7:30 pm on the last Thursday of the month at
Hopkins Marine Station in Pacific Grove, California (across from the
American Tin Cannery Outlet Stores). Meeting date is changed when the
last Thursday conflicts with a holiday. These meetings are free and open
to the public. ACS meetings and activities feature cetacea and various
aspects of the marine environment.

This presentation will take us on a journey across southern Baja to

trips into the Sea of Cortez and view sea birds and foraging dolphins.
Hope to see you there.
