Return of the Photos

Well apologies for the long time since I last posted photos on this Blog, its been a busy few weeks what with plenty of trips and moving into a new visitor centre... any ways here a few photos from the last few weeks..





As we have moved into June and July we are seeing more and more Basking Sharks on our trips... These guys can reach up to 10m in length!


16th June proved a great trip with 8 bottlenose dolphins greeting us on our way back in after some wonderful whale sightings...see below...




Minke Whale! This youngster surfaced right next to the whale watch boat and a little later one we found three whales feeding amongst diving gannets and various other birds


This is the reason there was so much activity.... our plankton trawl produced an absolutey massive amount of plankton, the basis of the food chain...
