Commerson's (Cephalorhynchus commersonii) and Peale's Dolphins (Lagenorhynchus australis) are found in the cold waters of the South Atlantic and can often to be seen together in mixed groups. The pod of Commerson's in this photograph was spotted at Bertha’s Beach on the Falkland Islands leaping and diving in the surf. Although freezing, it seemed, at the time, imperative to get close and join them. The more splashing and noise we made in the water, the more they wanted to play.
