The subantarctic skuas got our clients filling up half their memory cards even before we saw any sharks. These birds are always awesome in the way that they fly so close to you, that you could almost touch them. Conditions at sea were very pleasant with relatively calm conditions. The sharks were slightly less calm in the manner they pursued the decoy today. Quite understandable because of the sheer number of sharks around the cage! Even though there were so many sharks, we were very surprised to see a young seal brave the waters in search of a play mate. He can consider himself very fortunate that the sharks preferred our seal decoy over the real thing :)! A Cape Gannet was also very lucky to have caught a massive fish in front of the boat, it was unlucky in the fact that it was too big to swallow :)! The day was truly blessed with an abundance of shark activity as well as a flurry of nature’s splendour! Keep it up…
