She didn't even know that we were going until that morning and the day ended up being perfect.
Sunfish - this fish can swim both vertically and horizontally
Northern Wright Whale Dolphins - these dolphins don't have a dorsal fin, they actually like to swim and play in the wake right along the bow (front) of the boat as we're going along
Humpback Whale - this whale named 'Big Fin' was 56 feet long and has lungs the size of 55 gallon tanks that allow it to stay under water for up to 25 minutes, the blowhole is on the left and the dorsal fin is on the right
This is the same whale showing here flukes just before diving under for more food, each whale has distinct markings on its flukes, similar to a person's fingerprints
Sea lions - these creatures seem to be thoroughly enjoying their roost on this buoy, you can see that one of them has several scars from a run in with a shark
we saw plenty more things, but i'll save those for another post
until then
cheers,
