I asked Portland Bird Obs about the Tuna, and the chap there said they've been about for the last few autumns, but more prevalent this year. Until I got home I thought it was Dolphins, as they've been about too, last week. I was thrilled with whatever it was going to be, and didn't know if any of the shots would come out

Thanks Linda, I was a bit stunned, and just watched another couple of leaps, then I remembered the camera lol

Great set of images PB.

Always makes the trip when you find something unexpected.
