Baby steps; NEWT’s Northumberland Ultimate Pelagic 02/09/17

Our third 10hr ‘Northumberland Ultimate Pelagic‘ for this year brought a remarkable encounter with White-beaked Dolphins, although not out in the Farne Deeps where sightings were brief.  Just a few miles from the NEWT office, as the crow flies, we found three dolphins, including a mother and a neonate which she was helping to the surface when it was time for it to breathe!
