Another day, another dozen or so dolphins...


Out on the boat this afternoon, with the wind blowing a bit stronger than the weather weasels predicted (imagine that?); mostly overcast; but, we brought our sunny dispositions, hoping to see some dolphins.

Once again, it didn't take long, and there were plenty of them...





With the first group we watched, there were about a dozen of them - Joan captured lots of tails as they swam around us and dived...






Some faces...




Close by the boat...




We moved toward the ship channel and found another group - a Momma and a youngster...



A bait shrimper surrounded by birds...


An excursion boat...


Heading for home, another group of dolphins...



A happy captain and first mate...


About a 10 minute ride in the canals on our island to get to our dock, so time for looking at the birds along the way...


I think the birds above are black-bellied whistling ducks; snowy egret below...


A nice afternoon out on the water.
