The BBC Panorama crew came out on the boat with us on Sunday. It was an early morning wakeup call for us all, and the sea did not look promising for spotting dolphins. We got down to the boat for 7:00am, but the crew was about 15 minutes late! While we were waiting for them 3 dolphins showed up in the bay behind us. We were really happy to have that happen because we didn't want to have to venture out past the headland where it would be even rougher. When the crew arrived we were able to head out and move between the different sets of dolphins. Among them was Moneypenny with the newborn, and Chris. It was a bit rough, but no one woofed their cookies, which was good. Our part on the show probably will be only a few minutes long, but there will probably be some great footage of the back of my head while I take pictures!
You can just see the tiny grey newborn under the water beside mum in this shot
This is Moneypenny and the calf underwater again, they are hard to photograph!
In this photo you can make out a sideways reflection of new quay in the dorsal fin. Use your imagination!
