2009 Season is a go!

We are just coming to the end of our first week of the 2009 season.

There have already been some fantastic sightings of Harbour Porpoise, with one group swimming close behind the boat as we enjoyed our coffee break.

Sea Eagle sightings have been regular also, with a particularly close encounter with a pair that flew directly over the top of Sula Beag, much to everyones excitement!

Although no whales or dolphins have been spotted YET...we have done a number of plankton trawls that have come with superb amounts of copepods and even a small sand eel...good sign for the season ahead.

The heat is on to get out there and find some bigger beasties, look forward to seeing you soon :-)
