Today was a great sperm whale<\/a> day on the island of Sao Miguel<\/b><\/u>; we managed to see our giant resident in the morning and in the afternoon.
\nA very big male was spotted by some boats and also some females were seen, so we were very happy and also we got some tails for our research!<\/span><\/span>

\nIn Pico Island<\/u><\/b> we went first to see the female sperm whales that were far away. On the last days, we have been seeing two females: one with a newborn still breastfeeding. After the sperm whales, we went searching for the dolphins. First a very active group of common dolphins<\/a> and then again a group of female Risso’s dolphins<\/a> with a lot of newborns and juveniles. Another great day in the company of the sperm whales!<\/span><\/span>
