Another amazing day out of Sao Miguel. In
the morning we went to see sei whales, they were two individuals traveling
west as it normally happens with this species.
Then we went to have a look at a male sperm whale and it was our resident male Mr. Liable, it showed tail as usual, and one
boat from the company could record its echolocation.

In the afternoon we spotted a group of
female sperm whales, some of them showed the tail to go for a feeding dive, we
could recognize two individuals, one named Tonga who belongs to the blue unit
and “Orca” who belongs to the red unit. It is curious that sometimes two units
can be in the same place at the same time.

Everything was going right but suddenly
bottlenose dolphins appeared in the area making the sperm whales crazy,
changing the way that they were swimming and the went really close to one boat,
a really nice sighting. Then we went a bit further out to see the rest of the
bottlenose dolphins.
