Bottlenose Identification
It has been a week of dolphins here in Maui. Today on our Molokini Wild Side trip we spotted a group of about 10 bottlenose dolphins. A few were eager to come check out the boat and even do a little bowriding. I tried to get some research photographs to ID the individual dolphins by getting close ups of their dorsal fins. You can see the dolphin in the top photo has a big chunk missing from the tip of its fin. This is a feature that will make him easy to match up to our catalog of bottlenose that frequent these Maui waters.
