Closer to the Ledge we found several fin whales. At one point we had a trio of fin whales traveling together and being escorted by Atlantic white sided dolphins! Beautiful!
Pelagic birds were abundant as well. Great shearwaters were seemingly everywhere, and we had several looks at sooty and manx shearwaters as well.
Striation the humpback whale came by for some food and even surfaced with his mouth FULL of fish and water!
I can't forget about the "tern on a board" either!
On our way home, we came across another humpback whale. This was Sickle's calf from 2009, and has not been named yet.
Just when we thought we were done, a HUGE basking shark appeared and stayed alongside the boat for 8 minutes!
Fabulous day filled with life! Can't wait to get back out there tomorrow!Keep in touch!Become a Fan on Facebook || Follow Us On Twitter
