We left the rain<br \/>\nbehind and the <a href=\"http:\/\/azoreswhales.blogspot.pt\/2007\/07\/atlantic-spotted-dolphin.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Atlantic spotted dolphins<\/a> found us shortly after, on our way to<br \/>\nthe <a href=\"http:\/\/azoreswhales.blogspot.pt\/2007\/07\/sperm-whale.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">sperm whales<\/a>. &nbsp;That\u2019s why we<br \/>\ncontinued after a short sighting of the smallest species which visits the<br \/>\nAzores. When we arrived in the whale zone we watched several individuals even<br \/>\nshowing their majestical flukes. One tail was telling it\u2019s tale of life. A well<br \/>\ncured injury was marking a deep cut on his tail stock. But then an upright blow<br \/>\nof a baleen whale was catching our eye and we followed the <a href=\"http:\/\/azoreswhales.blogspot.pt\/2007\/07\/sei-whale.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">sei whale<\/a> for a<br \/>\nwhile, but we were not the only ones, so did the Atlantic spotted dolphins. From<br \/>\nthe zodiacs could <a href=\"http:\/\/azoreswhales.blogspot.pt\/2007\/07\/common-dolphin.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">common dolphins<\/a> and <a href=\"http:\/\/azoreswhales.blogspot.pt\/2007\/07\/bottlenose-dolphin.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">bottlenose dolphins<\/a> been watched and even a <a href=\"http:\/\/azoreswhales.blogspot.pt\/2007\/07\/brydes-whale.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Bryde\u00b4s whale<\/a>. We can consider us very lucky to have seen<br \/>\nrepresentors of several classes, tooth whales and baleen whales, residents and<br \/>\nseasonal species and even the migratory spring time species.<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"MsoNormal\">\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<span lang=\"EN-US\" style=\"font-family: inherit;\"><br \/><\/span><\/div>\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<span lang=\"EN-US\" style=\"color: #0b5394; font-family: inherit;\"><br \/><\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"MsoNormal\">\n<div style=\"text-align: justify;\">\n<span lang=\"EN-US\"><b style=\"background-color: white;\"><span style=\"color: #0b5394; font-family: inherit;\">Photos from today:<\/span><\/b><\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"MsoNormal\">\n<span lang=\"EN-US\"><br \/><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"separator\" style=\"clear: both; text-align: center;\">\n<\/div>\n<table align=\"center\" cellpadding=\"0\" cellspacing=\"0\" class=\"tr-caption-container\" style=\"margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/whalewatchingazores.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/carine1.jpg\" imageanchor=\"1\" style=\"margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;\"><img border=\"0\" data-original-height=\"768\" data-original-width=\"1024\" height=\"480\" src=\"https:\/\/whalewatchingazores.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/carine1.jpg\" width=\"640\" \/><\/a><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td class=\"tr-caption\" style=\"text-align: center;\">Sperm Whale Tail<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p><\/p>\n<table align=\"center\" cellpadding=\"0\" cellspacing=\"0\" class=\"tr-caption-container\" style=\"margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/whalewatchingazores.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/carine2.jpg\" imageanchor=\"1\" style=\"margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;\"><img border=\"0\" data-original-height=\"768\" data-original-width=\"1024\" height=\"480\" src=\"https:\/\/whalewatchingazores.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/carine2.jpg\" width=\"640\" \/><\/a><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td class=\"tr-caption\" style=\"text-align: center;\">Sei Whale<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<table align=\"center\" cellpadding=\"0\" cellspacing=\"0\" class=\"tr-caption-container\" style=\"margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/whalewatchingazores.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/carine3.jpg\" imageanchor=\"1\" style=\"margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;\"><img border=\"0\" data-original-height=\"768\" data-original-width=\"1024\" height=\"480\" src=\"https:\/\/whalewatchingazores.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/09\/carine3.jpg\" width=\"640\" \/><\/a><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td class=\"tr-caption\" style=\"text-align: center;\">Atlantic Spotted Dolphin<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"On this rainy Sunday we went out on the ocean, to find cetaceans.
