see commerson's dolphins in the strait of magellan


If you travel by bus to Ushuaia, you will get to take a ferry across the Strait of Magellan

The first time I crossed the strait to Tierra del Fuego, I didn't have my camera and it didn't matter anyway because it was raining.

On the way back over the strait, I made absolutely certain I brought my camera with me. Why was it so important? I wanted to get some shots of the Commerson's Dolphins that so playfully showed off for us by racing and leaping through the water.

Commerson's Dolphins are the dolphins that are stylishly dressed in black and white. Often in packs of two or three, they sped along side the ferry eager to keep up with the ferry.

Are you sure that they aren't trying to impersonate penguins?

You're probably right. It is a good look... :)

They're frisky little critters, aren't they? I liked the music you picked-very fitting.
