\nThis morning we have seen a very big group of bottlenose dolphins<\/a>. They were spread out over a wide area but got really curious with the boats and swimmers. <\/span><\/span><\/div>\n
\n
<\/span><\/span><\/div>\n
\nWe saw as well a pod of common dolphins. Both species, at least part of the groups, were feeding together with Cory’s shearwaters. <\/span><\/span><\/div>\n
\n
<\/span><\/span><\/div>\n
\nIn the afternoon we saw the same group of common dolphins<\/a> and several sperm whales<\/a>, even breaching on the distance. One of the sperm whales went for a deep and long dive showing its tail.<\/span><\/span><\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

\nIn the Azores, every year the SOS Cagarro campaign<\/a> takes place between October 15th and November 15th, aiming to save the juvenile shearwaters. Cory’s shearwaters are migratory birds<\/a> that are now starting to leave their nests and getting ready for the oceanic flight.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/div>\n
