Behave Yourself Lunar !

Hi Everyone,

I’ve had a really nice couple of days round at Chanonry despite the odd rain shower with good company and pretty good dolphins sightings too. In the photo below you can see Moonlights young son, Lunar being a bit cheeky and trying to grab the same small fish as his Mum…kids eh – what are they like?

Sundance plus Rainbow and baby have been close in to the Point most days although Rainbow didn’t turn up yesterday – Jigsaw was hunting for sprats out in the distance and being really active – great to see.

Best Wishes,

Charlie.
