May was a good month, only 3 days we could not go out.
We observed five different species of dolphins.
Our
number one was again the Common dolphin which we saw almost every day. Followed
by the Bottlenose dolphins which were our second most sighted.
We managed to
see Striped dolphins on five days and two times the Risso’s dolphins and even
on one day the Short-finned pilot whales.
The Sperm whales were scarce at the
beginning of the month but the last two weeks we enjoyed them on every tour.
This month we had two beaked whale sightings and one of them was a quite rare
species: A mother and a calf of True’s beaked whales.
May was an excellent
month to follow the baleen whales. We could register 5 different species like
the rare Minke whale.
Especially the acrobatic Humpback whales were delighting
everybody.
The Fin and Blue whales were passing more in the first half of the
month and the Sei whales in the second half.
Let’s see what June will
bring us! Join us ;)
