Description Fabio was swimming open mouth in circles around his trainer on cue. It was really cute and cool to see the Commerson's Dolphins in action!

One of the coolest photos I have seen of these guys! Don't often see above-water clear photos like this.

Very nice, the first time I heard about Commerson's dolphins was on the animal planet series, That's my Baby which aired about 10 years ago. The episode featured a female Commerson dolphin at Seaworld in San Diego. Turns out when they're young they're gray and black then as they get older their skin gets lighter and eventually they get black and white markings like their parents.

Thank you! Very cool. Yeah, there's a bunch of different cetaceans who start out a different coloration as newborns (usually gray) and eventually gain their adult coloration.

Thank you so much! I was very happy with this shot. I missed this behavior the first time so I made sure to get it when he did it again.

This is phenomenal my friend, great work. Glad you were able to see the Commies when you were there, bet it's been a while!

Thank you very much! It's been a long time since I've seen them up close. While I miss them in San Diego, they have an amazing exhibit with above water and underwater viewing and scheduled training sessions there(my first time seeing them trained too!). Hopefully one day the SWC Commerson's dolphins will be on public display again or at least be seen on tours.
