It is amazing. Living in a place with abundant sea life you wonder when will I see them will I have to travel many miles. And it doesn`t happen but you hope. So you get a rumor that if you go to this small harbor about 2 miles from your house they might just be there. So you go every day for 7 days and on the seventh day you hear them. You cannot see them because the water is too murky. And there they are Mom Dad and baby. And you go back the next day and the family is there. for two weeks every day they are back. There is a great PHD student with her underwater audio equipment studying their communication for her doctorate
Today I spoke to her and she is from the east coast of Florida and asked her how long would we have the pleasure of their company. maybe till winter she says. The whole situation has made my day and possibly my year.
Pardon the photos the water is very murky.
I may mention that besides being a very intelligent marine biologist she is darn attractive. Wonderful the best of sea life and human life. Life is good

Sometimes it pays off to be patient. I have only seen them in captivity. You have some great images to remember the experience.

Love these shots and the subjects ... so majestic and 'above it all' in attitude.

Thanks for sharing.
