      Definitely my favourite of your latest posts. Calf looks really young - a few weeks maybe?

      Many thanks - yes I think the calf is only 1-2 weeks old. The foetal folds are still visible where the youngster was curled up in the womb.

      spectacular shot, such an amazing wee dolphin, I love him to pieces. What's with the folded dorsal on the Adult? Do you know what caused this?

      It might have been a drift net or sometimes genetic mutations... Can't see the whole fin... Can also be socializations... Can't see the type of deformation/scar...

      Very good shot!
