strandings are not
uncommon and here
:29:03
they can easily be
cornered by predators
:29:07
but the shallow water
is a hunting
:29:09
ground for a small
group of specialists
:29:12
here they practice
a fishing technique
:29:14
other dolphins find
too risky
:29:28
the shallows would seem to
favor the smaller creature
:29:33
but the dolphin has mastered
the art of hydroplaning
:29:36
skimming through
mere inches of water
:29:39
sometimes breathing air
has its advantages
:30:25
the sea eagle
:30:26
who's watched the chase
with intense interest
:30:29
times his
swoop perfectly
:30:44
of the four to five hundred
dolphins in shark bay
:30:47
only a handful of females
have mastered this technique
:30:56
often dolphins play with
