November 4th @ 9pm the CahowCam 2 pair have finally reunited!
The male had arrived on October 30th and for the past week has been waiting for his mate to return, whilst many of our online followers became increasingly concerned. As luck would have it he finally took a feeding break last night, just missing her when she arrived an hour later, but after spending the day at sea feeding he finally connected with her this evening.
As Jeremy noted however, this seems to be the norm for this pair who are far less synchronized than their neighbors a few feet away in the CahowCam1 burrow, who this year once again returned within hours of each other despite having spent the past few months thousands of miles apart.
