2025, November 4. Chatham Islands (Rēkohu). Near Stranding. Two large groups of Black Dolphins (Pilot whales) surrounded by a smaller species of dolphin. Pilot whales were mustered out of the bay by a boat. The whales were head bobbing which is a sign of stress.
Also on the same island: 2025, November 3. Chatham Islands. A 50 ft female Cachalot (Sperm Whale) stranded and died on the other side of the island. It died in the early hours of the 4th.
Update 20251109: So far, no pods have been seen near the shore. Good sign.

Because of the US Government shutdown, the information below is incomplete. I few bolides were detected after the July period; however, I assume there are more.
