Image of Risso's dolphin
Description:
A real treat. Cooperatively feeding very close inshore (these photos were taken from the bluff). This group of about 18 dolphins repeatedly circled fish into a nice bait ball before moving in. An outlier occasionally breached as they followed the fish, perhaps to scare fish closer to the pod? Or just fun?
