A cloudy day with some rain was presented to us today and we had a Ribeira Brava tour scheduled for the morning. While skipper and spotter discussed about doing the trip or not, we in the Lobosonda shop, started to get ready putting on waterproof gear. Meanwhile the weather started improving and the decision was made to start the trip. After a short stretch we spotted again the same group of Bottlenose dolphins that we had spotted several times during this week. Through careful observation of one of the adult animals (resourcing to photo ID) and looking at the wound on its dorsal fin, wich is still in the healing process, we could recognise the animal.
