My sister and niece came for a visit this weekend and we got up early
on Sunday morning to go Dolphin watching in the Tay estuary,
on the east coast of Scotland (where i live).
We spent an hour watch these beautiful creatures glide effortlessly through the waters.
They were very nosey came right up to the boat, much to our delight!!!
They feed on sea trout, which are in abundance this year so we were fortunate enough
to watch a pod of about 40 bottle nosed dolphins,
mothers and calves, adolescents and mature adults playing in the mouth of the river.
They belong further north but travel down from the Murray firth for
the fish between the months of April and September
so still plenty of time to book another trip i think!

Yet another reason why I'd love to go to Scotland...
How cool!
Oh what fun! I could watch dolphins for hours on end. They're such happy & entertaining creatures! And the sounds they make are so funny...kind of like they're chuckling. Gorgeous!
How wonderful! Dolphins are so much fun and magical to see...
