Moonlight and Baby Pop By…

By Charlie Phillips | 15th May 2015

Hi Everyone,

I have finally managed to see Moonlight and her baby that she had last year, and both of them are looking super although her baby looks as though he or she has been on the receiving end of a bite around the nose – ouch…wonder what happened there?

They were with another fourteen or so dolphins that came hunting at Chanonry Point last evening, and what an evening it was – lovely light for photography but a gale force wind and salt spray going everywhere ! Sundance, Mischief were there and I’m sure Rainbow was around too but I just couldn’t get a sharp photo of her and her youngster. Better luck next time.

Best Wishes,

Charlie.
