A most amazing day..

Yesterday was amazing, it started wae an Otter swimming past me,
then shortly later I saw a few Dolphins in the sound, think they
were White sided Dolphins, but id was'nt confirmed..
Then it was off to Toft Voe, The Basking Shark has been hanging
around for two days now, so must been lots of feeding for it, or
should I say two, as one was in the Voe, and one was at the
mouth o the Voe..
Then it was off to Vidlin Voe, I had an appointment wae Scottish
Sea Farms, they own the Salmon cages, and they help me to get
close to the Common Dolphin.. they also have a family of Otters
living close to there base, but I did'nt see them..
Yesterday the Dolphin was very active, but it was so fast, most
of my pics were just colums of water where it landed, perhaps I
was just a wee bit close to it with a 500mm lens..
Once again.. these pictures would'nt be possible without
Scottish Sea Farms co-operation..
The Common Dolphin..
