Saturday, August 19

Awesome trips today! This morning we saw three pods of Atlantic white sided dolphins, 2 mystery whales (whale spouts but never saw the actual whales), Comet the well-known fin whale, a few minke whales, an ocean sunfish and two humpback whales! The humpbacks were are recent regulars, Spoon and Jabiru!

This afternoon, we found Spoon and Jabiru again along with a pod of Atlantic white sided dolphins and a fin whale. Then a minke was spotted briefly on our ride home! The humpbacks were exhibiting interesting behavior. Spoon picked up her nose out of the water  a few times, showing us the mud on it (sign of feeding on the bottom) while Jabiru surfaced tail-first! Spoon even lifted her huge flipper out of the water, and Jabiru was belly up, lifting her flukes our of the water. Such a cool day!
