Show us your seals & cetaceans...

(That's whales & dolphins if you're not sure and you might as well throw in any fish shots too).

This beaut was off Boscastle last week:

We were out the other day from Sandend on the Moray Coast and saw what we initially thought were dolphins in Cullen Bay. There were about 8-10 of them and some were jumping clear out the water. We stayed at a safe distance as I didnt fancy one of them landing on us. I tried (and failed) to get some "jumpers". When I looked through the pics later I saw that they were most likely killer whales - in this pic here you can see the distinctive white marks on the bodies. Scanning the internet threw up this article about KW sightings arounjd the north coast of Scotland recently.

Came across this South Devon seal this evening. I've got a feeling that he might also be residing on the memory cards of other paddlers who've passed this way in recent days.........

Some images taken from a video when we were paddling in the Johnston & Queen Charlotte Straits, Canada last September. We reckon it was a teenage bull, that was following a pod through the strait and he got quite interested in us.

Incredible experience, making grown men cry. Once in a lifetime experience, or so we thought, as when paddling off mull 2 weeks ago, were joined by about 7 dolphins, for about 40mins which was incredible.

This little fella decided to visit us during a quick lunch break around Skokholm earlier in the year and decided the bow of my kayak might taste nice.

The Carthy Islands, a small horseshoe archipelago of skerries in Roaringwater Bay with a fairly permanent colony. Pups are so inquisitive and cute!

Brittany near Pors Peron in this year mid September. There were circa 10 dolphin in the pod heading to me and then passing by close to my kayak (~20m)

May I include my otter?

And a man imitating a seal?


That was in Scotland, and also this one.

My mate Rob snapped this dude out of Sydney Heads last week.

I can never get any decent picture of seals in the water, they seem to have an uncanny ability to tell when I am about to press the shutter button :-(



Somewhere on the coast of Mull.

No selfies please Mike :-)
