Wildlife Adventure - 5th August 2012

Wildlife Adventure passengers - 5th of August 2012. Superb wildlife encounters today with perfect flat, calm conditions! We drifted for over an hour with a Minke whale surfacing around us along with lots of porpoise and a very sneaky basking shark! We also saw all 4 members of the local sea eagle family and finished the trip with a group of BOTTLENOSE DOLPHINS who lead us back home to Tobermory! We deployed the hydrophone and heard them clicking and whistling as they played around Sula Beag, an incredible sound and amazing experience :-)

Harbour Porpoise with a very obvious nic in its dorsal fin, a very rare sight indeed! This adult was with a calf and circled the boat, wow!
