Strumble Diary 22/02/2018

A calm day with fair to poor light for most of the session. The calmness of the water allowed for views of the porps way out to sea and over a 180deg arc there were very many porps visible. I would estimate in the region of 40-50 animals feeding well on the ebb flow from west of the lighthouse to a mile or two out and around to the east of Mackerel Point. It seemed that wherever I pointed my binoculars there were porps showing. So in the two hour session there were plenty of images to be had and it was nice to get several shots of paired porps and in one I managed three in the same shot. One marked porp, not a fin nick but a spot on the left flank. All in all a very enjoyable and productive session.
