Back in the Water
Strand Feeding completed, the dolphins have consumed the meal on the muddy bank of the salt marsh, they slide back in to the water and turn them selves around. Here I was able to capture that moment and see one of the faces of the wonderful dolphin. They seem to make eye contact whenever you are lucky enough to catch them with their head out of the water. I am quite sure they were aware of us and knew exactly where we were at all times. They are not at all afraid of humans and are quite inquisitive. At one point they came right up to our boat to see us and were so darn close I couldn't focus my lens even at 70mm. So thrilling to be amongst them.
