We’ve been out and seen some Orcas in Baja recently and we were pretty far, 12 miles or so out and the Orcas just disappeared and then we saw a Risso jump and we thought that the Orcas might go after the Rissos but they didn’t.
The whole pod of Risso’s then appeared and the one that was jumping had a parasite on him or something and he was repeatedly slamming his head on the water which was cool to see.
They continued on the surface socializing and calming swimming, there were about 20 of them, you can see 7 or so together in the video, they were a little bit spread out. We were with them for about 30 minutes and they kept jumping. They are one of my favourite dolphins so it was so cool to see them, I love that they are white and it was only the third time I had seen them so it was wonderful.
