Beautiful Day With Dolphins


Just got back from a trip on the Atlantic Queen, where we spent time with Flask, one of our favorite humpbacks, an unidentified fin whale, and a pod of about 30 Atlantic white-sided dolphins! The dolphins were feeding, charging all around with terns flying over head, making their distinctive raspy calls. It was exciting to watch the dolphins all lined up, practically flying through the water!
Got great looks at Flask, as usual, and terrific looks at the fin whale, who did a nice job showing us its distinctive white lower jaw and beautiful chevron pattern!

It's supposed to be hot and humid over the next few days. A boat is the best place to be - come join us!
