Shark swims free again

great white shark was freed

Remember the shark captured off the SoCal coast late last month and moved to the Monterey Bay Aquarium's exhibit? She ate only once in her 11-days on display so, on Sunday afternoon, scientists let her go free. She's wearing a tracking tag that, even as we speak, is collecting data about where she's swimming and how deep she's going and how far. I wrote it up for my LAT blog and here's the link.

Meanwhile, I'm headed to Sacramento for a few days and, time willing, will post from there. If not, see you back here on Thursday, with even more pix of tiny labradors, foggy sunrises and, of course, more cranky rants about rampant development.
