Dolphins

[heliona]

Here are some more photos that I took this summer. I merely picked two out of a great bunch. These fellows were just many that visited us on our Atlantic crossing. Not a day went past that we didn't get visitors of some form or another. (Cut for size.)

Amazing! What kind are they?

They are common dolphins. They have this distinctive sort of yellowish marks on their sides. See the paler bit on their sides? That's actually kind of creamy. They're the most playful and friendly of the dolphin species, really. You see them a lot.

Tell me about it! They played with us for about an hour, which meant I could take some decent photos.
