“Captain Dave Anderson of Capt. Dave’s Dolphin and Whale Safari in Dana Point, California recently filmed a 5-minute video that contains some of the most beautiful, jaw-dropping, footage ever taken with a drone from the air of a huge mega-pod of thousands of common dolphins stampeding off Dana Point, California, three gray whales migrating together down the coast off San Clemente, California, and heartwarming close-ups hovering over a newborn Humpback whale calf snuggling and playing with its mom as an escort whale stands guard nearby, filmed recently in Maui. Capt. Dave had to film this off a small inflatable boat, launching and catching the quadcopter drone by hand.”

Awesome as always!!!!! I love dolphins and imagined me diving with them. That would be heaven on earth. Dolphins are so smart, I’ve heard so many stories of dolphins saving a persons life. Thinking about a animal saving life your life is mind bending. I really enjoy seeing what’s next from you. Have a great day. 🙂
