Dolphins

I think my sister is the luckiest girl on this side of the planet. She got to swim with the whale sharks as well as swimming with the dolphins in the same week!
It takes a little while for the crew to locate the dolphins and some tourists are getting restless, the crew know what they're doing and find a small pod of 5 dolphins willing to play.

These are the bottle nose dolphins (although my sister calls them bottle neck dollies). They're big beasts (300kgs) and very playful. It seems they're interested in Emmanuelle as they keep on sending echo's in her general direction, more precisely her belly. Are they interested in our son? It certainly seems that way.

The bottle nose dolphins here in Rockhampton have developed a rather unique tactic to get their feed of fish. They follow giant bull rays (look at the proportion against the dolphins and you'll get an idea of how big they are) and catch all fish fleeing out of the ray's way. They even turn the rays upside down to steal their catch!

We are very fortunate to this happen in real life. It is very unique behaviour. We see the dolphins follow the rays very closely to catch any fish trying to get away. How lucky are we?!
