False Killer Whales in Dominica

10 posts
  1. It's been a little more difficult this week; the whales were very far out and in smaller more mobile groups. Today we actually got skunked with regard to sperm whales, the first for me. There were none in the area, and it soon became obvious why.....pods and pods of false killer whales in the area. Landed up having an awesome day, fairly unique I think, in the water with these cool animals, losts of whistling everywhere. No really close encounters, but close enough for some interesting images.

    Here's one that shows a two false killer whales in the water with three dolphins, little too far unfortunately for a decent pic, cool to see though.

    Really like them and the top one is my favorite, just a great shot, really like everything about it but it just grabbed me before I even thought about why I liked it.

  3. Awesome experience and great shots Jeff!

  7. Nice! We were unable to get close enough to them to photograph. They always stayed just a little bit ahead...
