In S\u00e3<\/span>o Miguel Island, we had different animals, same species. This morning we could choose what to see. The small boat and the full day boat were in a area where at least 4 tails from female sperm whales were sighted. <\/span>
\n
<\/span>
\nThen in other hand, our big boat Cetus went to see him, our star Mr. Liable. Then, after lunch we had a easy afternoon, Mr. Liable was really close of Vila franca, and the same group of bottlenose dolphin spotted in the morning were quiet close of him.<\/span><\/span>

\nIn Pico Island, we went out in yet another sunny day. Before even realizing, we found a sei whale and sperm whales in the same area. We went along with it and then the sei whale “rolled” completely, showing us its belly.<\/span>
\n
<\/span>
\nBack in the sperm whale area, we checked it was a group of females with calves. One of the individuals had an open wound. Our biologists believe there was some kind of parasite involved.<\/span>
\n
<\/span>
\nAfter that was time for the dolphins: first of all we saw spotted dolphins, as curious as always. Then we saw very active common dolphins and then striped dolphins. These ones were not that much interested in our boat.<\/span>
