On the 2nd of June 2009 Risso’s dolphins were photographed by Wildlife boat-operator Hannah Jones from Marine Discovery Penzance in the English Channel, Mounts Bay (Cornwall). Photographs revealed a match with a Risso’s dolphin previously photographed off Bardsey Island in 2006 by WDCS approximately 172 nautical miles further North within the Irish Sea. This is the first time a Risso’s dolphin from the Irish Sea was subsequently seen elsewhere!
