\n<\/a>This morning the Futurismo crew was divided into four boats to do whale watching and swimming with dolphins. Everyone was
\nexcited because the sea was calm and weather was sunny with a fresh wind. After
\nhalf an hour traveling and looking at Cory’s shearwaters<\/a> and some Portuguese man-o-war<\/a> we
\nsighted a large fin whale<\/a>. So far, every day of
\nMay, we have sighted fin whales. After a while the vigia (onshore lookout)<\/a> alerted us of a group of birds working (flying in a circle and diving trying to catch fish). One of our zodiacs approached the birds in hope to see dolphins and, instead, they sighted yellowfin tuna<\/a> <\/span>jumping and feeding on mackerel<\/a>. On the way back to our marina in Ponta Delgada we kept trying to spot more cetaceans. Some common dolphins<\/a> appeared, but quickly <\/span><\/span>disappeared<\/span>. They were busy minding there own business, they might have been hunting as there were lots of Cory’s shearwaters on the surface with their head down in the water to spy on the dolphins. <\/span><\/span><\/span>
