Louisiana Cetaceans

Since these trips are sponsored by an ornithological society, seabirds are the first priority. But we also see whales and dolphins, and we certainly don't ignore them. Here are some pictures of cetaceans seen on our trips.

Sperm Whale				Pantropical Spotted Dolphin
beaked whale (who knows what kind?)				Clymene Dolphin
Short-finned Pilot Whale				Risso's Dolphin
Bottlenose Dolphin				mystery dolphin

For many more photos and more information, here is a web site about Cetaceans Occuring in the Gulf of Mexico. The photos on this web site you're visiting now were taken by John Sevenair unless otherwise indicated. This site was last updated on 3/20/99.
