Great Sightings!
It was nice and flat on Thursday and we had some good sightings of dolphins from the pier on our 7-9am land watch. We actually saw two different sets of dolphins, a harbour porpoise and a seal. We were wondering if we might get to see a harbour porpoise being attacked, but nothing happened.
It was my day for boat watch, but I am still training so I was shadowed by Danielle. Since it was so calm we got to stand on the front of the boat, and I was able to spot the dolphins first! It was amazing! The dolphins were so close we could watch them swimming under the water. Danielle was doing the photographing, and I could actually tell her when the dolphins were surfacing so she could get good photos. We drove on to look at the bird colonies. We saw the same dolphins on the way back as well.
On our lunch break we went to the pier to see if there were any dolphins around, and we spotted our favorite dolphin Chris! So these are some pictures of her!
