At least 40 common dolphins from the Barra - Oban ferry this morning with at
least one calf seen. Around 20 were at the entrance to the Sound of Mull out
from Tobermory, 10 were out from Castlebay on Barra and the rest somewhere in
between.

Bottlenose dolphins in the Sound of Fuideigh, Barra
One of at least four bottlenose dolphins in the Sound of Fuideigh, Barra this afternoon. The photo is a frame from a video taken on my phone and through my telescope. There was a lot of seabird activity in the Sound so presumably there was a shoal of fish, and the dolphins showed well with lots of leaps and tail slapping.
