Aquatic Wildlife

We've all enjoyed the aquatic wildlife in and around Turtle Bay. At home, a single seal on the bay or a pod of porous in the strait is notable. Here they are all around almost all the time.
On our way into Turtle Bay a group of dolphins accompanied the boat for a short time. Some of them leaped beside the boat and looked at us before they disappeared below the waves.
Drinking coffee in the cockpit at dawn, we discovered that a large school of fish were swimming below the anchorage. All around us pelicans were diving into the school, seals were chasing and frolicking with the fish, dolphins were herding and feeding and gulls filled the air. It was a nature spectacular.
I hope we see other scenes like this during our trip down the coast of Baja.
