This is a quick video of some juvenile spotted dolphins (Stenella frontalis) foraging in the sand in the Bahamas. These dolphins feed on small razorfish and flounder in the day during the day, then go off into deep water at night to feed on squid and flying fish.
In this video clip, I was freediving down to record behavior and acoustics, when a sub-adult male checked out what I was doing!
