From the night of Africa to the morning of Maui, Hawaii to watch the Spinner Dolphins (Stenella longirostris), species number 76 for me and Humpback Whales. Very cool to see them!
The Spinner Dolphin is a small dolphin found in off-shore tropical waters around the world. It is famous for its acrobatic displays in which it rotates around its longitudinal axis as it leaps through the air. The Spinner Dolphin is sometimes referred to as the Long-snouted Dolphin, particularly in older texts, to distinguish it from the similar Clymene Dolphin, which is often called the Short-snouted Spinner Dolphin.
