Whales, parlicons, sea lions and dolphins in San Diego.

This was the whale-watching season in San Diego - Humpback. Unfortunately I was so sea-sick that I cannot even stand up when I saw the whale so not surprising that I have no pictures for whales here. However, I got pictures for early creatures - sea lions and parlicons as well as dolphins.

Sea lions are the first animal appearing in our sight. They climbed up to the buoyto to enjoy the sun. Later on, both dolphins and parlicons appeared at the same time because they are chasing the same swarm of fish. Parlicons are big birds gliding in the wind. They are more than two meters wide with wings expanded and dive into the sea to catch their food fish. When they are not hunting, they can glide quiet at one meter above the sea surface as a fleet (see videos). Don't complain about the poor quality of the videos because they were caught with my cell phone.Also, you can see clearly at least three dolphins in the second picture. They were swimming right beneath our ship.
