#Sharks and #rays leap out of the water for many reasons, including feeding, courtship and communication https://theconversation.com/sharks-and-rays-leap-out-of-the-water-for-many-reasons-including-feeding-courtship-and-communication-238487
A review of elasmobranch breaching behavior: why do sharks and rays propel themselves out of the water into the air? https://link.springer.com/article/10.1007/s10641-024-01584-5
"It takes a lot of energy for a #shark or #ray to leap out of the water – especially a massive creature like a #BaskingShark (12 meters, 4.5 tonnes)... breaching must serve some useful purpose."

Had a nice trip out with Skipper Peter on the Dolphin Spirit Inverness Mischief RIB today and we came across this lovely Basking shark out beyond Whiteness Head - snout near the camera then dorsal fin then the tail. #baskingshark was about 7 metres in length.

Abruti par la chaleur, la tête pleine des œuvres de @lokigwyn et @vilain, je me suis lancé dans la linogravure.
Devinez quoi : c'est un sacré boulot 😮💨
Et il va falloir trouver le papier qui convient.#linogravure #linocut #requin #requinpèlerin #shark #baskingshark #eattherich

I got an unexpected day off today so I headed over to Ardmore to do the cliff walk.
I was rewarded with what I’m pretty sure was a sighting of a basking shark. The fin certainly looked like it. Definitely megafauna.
The dorsal fin rose about 30-50cm from the water. There was a boat nearby to get a scale from. I watched for about 15 minutes as it circled around one particular spot before it disappeared and I never saw any indication of a blow.

Sea kayaking tonight off #Nairn when.... When we came up close to a stunning #BaskingShark. She, like many, was totally disinterested in me.
