This photo was taken at the same time as DOL441 but facing
a different direction - east rather than north.

Leaping dolphin. It was raining so hard when this was taken
that it was dripping off the end of my nose. Worth it though.

Grey seal, Strathlene. The seal was reported as being stranded
or in distress by a number of people because it was on the beach
for most of the morning but it's common for adult seals to leave
their young on land while they go out to sea for food.
Most times the young animals aren't hurt or in any danger
and are best left where they are for when the parent seal returns.

A grey and rainy day brought great excitement when this
Humpback Whale appeared in August 2001. Very rarely seen in the
Moray Firth, it stayed off the village of Portknockie for about an hour
before heading out to sea. It was spotted again a number of times
over the following few weeks at different places along the Firth.
