At most times in Cedar Key all it takes is a little searching to find a group of Dolphins either feeding or just playing around.
Yesterday my wife and I enjoyed watching a few young dolphins frolic around just off the main pier. The above Triptych is a sequence captured in burst mode with my camera. These three shots span less than 1/2 second.
We have been told by someone who studies Dolphins that there are about 300 resident Dolphins at Cedar Key.
It looks like this guy is enjoying some lunch.
It’s not unusual to see them very close to shore. Lots of fun!
If you haven’t seen the movie Dolphin Tale yet, it’s a pretty good movie. It takes place in nearby Clearwater, Fl.
Shawnna,
Thank you for the kind words. I am very happy that you and your husband like the blog and have enjoyed visiting Cedar Key. It’s comments like yours that make doing the blog worthwhile.
As I’m sure you know, your reaction to the town is very typical of people who visit this little town.
OK, I just have to comment. I stumbled upon your blog a month or so ago and seeing that you have a new post is one of the highlights of my day! My husband and I and another couple vacationed in Cedar Key last April and just fell in love. We are planning on returning later this year for the seafood festival.
You are so talented. Thanks for sharing these photos! We got to see some of the dolphins when we were on a boat tour. So fun! I enjoy your bird photos as well. We were amazed at how many different kinds there are in CK! We never got to see them as up-close as in your photos, so those are a treat. And the photos of CK itself make me a strange kind of homesick…can you be homesick for a place you’ve only visited once? I think so!
Keep up the amazing work! You have fans in central Kentucky!
