We were able to identify that he was adult because of the colour of<br \/>\nhis skin, that was extremely white, as well as the presence of lots of marks . We<br \/>\ncontinued our trip and we spotted some common dolphins but since they were<br \/>\nfeeding, the dolphins were spread out and it was not easy to see them. Suddenly<br \/>\nour lookout spotted a blow and we went to the area where he spotted it. <span style=\"color: #191919; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial;\">We turned off the engines and<br \/>\nout of nowhere a fin whale appeared at the surface, just a few meters from our<br \/>\nboat. She took a 360-degree turn around our boat and continued to travel with another<br \/>\nfin whale. The weather was windy and in one of their blows we could smell the breath.<br \/>\nAn intense smell of krill (mia mi!). It was a very well-spent morning in the<br \/>\ncompany of two very calm fin whales.<\/span><\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"line-height: 150%; text-align: justify; text-indent: 36.0pt;\">\n<span style=\"color: #191919; mso-bidi-font-family: Arial;\"><br \/><\/span><\/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=\"http:\/\/1.bp.blogspot.com\/-NpomPR6jtCM\/WH0c3f94VBI\/AAAAAAAAGAM\/UdXdZXBWsZYotfvDTdbLsNtUr0LbaNf0QCK4B\/s1600\/Marina.png\" imageanchor=\"1\" style=\"margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;\"><img border=\"0\" height=\"480\" src=\"https:\/\/whalewatchingazores.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/Marina.png\" width=\"640\" \/><\/a><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td class=\"tr-caption\" style=\"text-align: center;\"><i><span style=\"font-size: small;\">Fin whale<\/span><\/i><\/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=\"http:\/\/1.bp.blogspot.com\/-mLIfaz_Mfu0\/WH0ekT4QVLI\/AAAAAAAAGAo\/sM_BPAis6pMZyF92k227ZJxgZEjK3BDEgCK4B\/s1600\/Marina%25281%2529.png\" imageanchor=\"1\" style=\"margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;\"><img border=\"0\" height=\"480\" src=\"https:\/\/whalewatchingazores.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/Marina28129.png\" width=\"640\" \/><\/a><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td class=\"tr-caption\" style=\"text-align: center;\"><i><span style=\"font-size: small;\">Fin whale blowholes<\/span><\/i><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\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=\"http:\/\/2.bp.blogspot.com\/-DBKidm1PwBI\/WH0d-hCUEII\/AAAAAAAAGAY\/nBRDGbD7MYgLT0IP2f61KBRWaoBXnpmCwCK4B\/s1600\/Marina%25282%2529.png\" imageanchor=\"1\" style=\"margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;\"><img border=\"0\" height=\"480\" src=\"https:\/\/whalewatchingazores.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/Marina28229.png\" width=\"640\" \/><\/a><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td class=\"tr-caption\" style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"font-size: small;\"><i>Dorsal of fin whale<\/i><\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Our first encounter of today\u2019s morning was with a solitairy adult Risso&#8217;s dolphin.
