Who Am I Reveal! I am a Cory's Shearwater! Cory's Shearwater are known for their nocturnal habits on breeding islands, and their eerie calls fill the night air. They migrate vast distances, traveling between Europe and the coasts of Africa, North America, and South America.
About us
MARINElife is an exciting UK based charity established to co-ordinate and develop a growing portfolio of global cetacean & seabird research and monitoring projects. We carry out deep sea scientific research and educational work on whales, dolphins, seabirds and other marine animals in the oceans of North-west Europe. Our goal is to help conserve marine animals and to raise awareness of the threats they face amongst the public and policymakers. We work collaboratively with a wide a range of stakeholders involved in marine economic activity and resource management including shipping, fishing and tourism businesses, Government Agencies, and scientific research and marine conservation organisations. As a leading scientific data-recording organisation for Cetacea (whales, dolphins & porpoises) and other marine life, we have been carrying out work in the English Channel and the Bay of Biscay since 1995. Our longest running and original project was the Biscay Dolphin Research Programme, that was conducted aboard P&O Ferries Pride of Bilbao from Portsmouth to Bilbao. In 2005 we became a registered charity as MARINElife and under this name we run a number of other research projects. As a UK-based charitable limited company MARINElife now co-ordinates and develops a growing portfolio of global research and monitoring projects. Through these we aim to further the conservation of the wildlife of coasts and oceans through scientific investigation and educational activities.

MARINElife volunteers have recently been out on the Peltic Survey aboard the CEFAS Endeavour. Over 16 days, the team conducted surveys across the south coast of England in the English Channel. This exciting work contributes to understanding marine life and the health of these waters. The survey yielded fantastic sightings of marine mammals and birds. Among the highlights were numerous Common Dolphins, Pilot Whales, Harbour Porpoises, and even a couple of Minke Whales. Bird enthusiasts would be thrilled by sightings of overwintering Pomarine Skuas, critically endangered Balearic Shearwaters, and threatened Sooty Shearwaters, alongside ship-hopping terrestrial birds. Feeding Tuna added even more excitement to the mix. You can read the full details of the surveys and discover more about the wildlife spotted on our website. It’s a wonderful insight into the rich biodiversity in and around the English Channel and the vital work MARINElife continues to do. https://lnkd.in/eHMMurAW

#WhoAmI Reveal! I'm a Fin Whale! Fin whales are the second-largest whale species (after the blue whale), reaching lengths of up to 85 feet (26 meters) and weighing around 40-80 tons. Fin whales produce low-frequency vocalizations, some of the loudest sounds in the animal kingdom, which can travel hundreds of miles underwater.
