Dolphins are bored with me

Calm waters and no dolphins

I had two boat trips today. The morning trip was a bust – I recorded only 3 minutes of video in 2 hours! The dolphins were out there swimming around us and spent some time riding the bow of our boat. But as soon as we jumped in ther water, they disappeared. I think they just get fed up with playing with the passengers sometimes and choose to ignore us. They always seem to enjoy the boats however. The afternoon trip was a bit more productive. We saw a lot of dolphin groups, and did manage to get some good video. Nothing spectacular however. It is almost impossible to predict what mood the dolphins will be in when we go on a trip. It does not seem to follow regular patterns. Sometimes they are curious in the mornings and aloof in the afternoons, and sometimes it is the other way around. I have another boat trip scheduled for tomorrow! Let’s see how they are feeling then…
