Strumble Diary 27/11/2018 A Glorious Risso's Day

After a dreadfully wet morning the skies cleared enough to make a session worthwhile, so shortly after midday I arrived and soon spotted a couple of Rissos stealthily moving up the tide race. Just then Holly and Rob arrived and Rob who has never been lucky enough to see Rissos so far was delighted with his first sighting as several more animals passed by west to east. As they did so one of the younger ones breached a couple of times to Holly's delight and although I missed that one I did catch a later breach as i tracked a couple of juveniles as they played in the swells. A short break as they moved off and then some twenty minutes later they came back in the opposite direction in a very playful mood thrashing and splashing as they went by. A lovely session especially for Rob and so nice to see the joy full freedom with which these majestic animals were enjoying their environment.
