Dolphins Again!

We had a huge number of Common Dolphins join us today.  It was hard to count the numbers, with many small groups of 5-10 animals around the boat, as far as the eye could see!

We also saw a large number of seals and had a brief view of a Sea Eagle.

Its also been confirmed that the basking shark we have seen three times over the last week is infact the same animal, that has covered many miles, some interesting data there!

Seems the sunshine has also brought the seas alive with massive swarms of jellyfish, lions mane's and moon jellyfish taking the limelight, but we have seen some other rarer species, such as compass jellyfish.
