Lemonade Lecture - Pilots of the Deep - July 15

Today, we will be joined by a scientist who is best friends with many of our nautical neighbors.  Because he is familiar with where they live, what they eat and how they travel, we will learn about swimming with sharks, how to speak Dolphin and how to recognize the song of the humpback whale.  We will also hear how exciting it is to come face to face with many different creatures of the sea and what usually happens when you do.
