]]> I was at Bolsa Chica State Beach in Southern California today (August 10th), and we saw a pod of about 12 dark whales moving along about 30 feet of from the beach. They were a very dark black, they moved pretty slowly, and they spouted. They weren’t too big, probably about 10 feet long, and there dorsal fins were a regular size (what I mean by that is they were a common size and had the typical dolphin-shaped fin).
I don’t think they were dolphins because it seems they were moving to slowly to be the stereotypical energetic dolphin. Maybe they were Risso’s dolphins, though. But more likely, I think they were a kind of porpoise. It is possible they were a very small whale, but I have a feeling they aren’t.
Does anybody have an idea of what I saw could be?

]]> Is it mainly just size, as skull structure in beaked and non-beaked whales differ more than those of beaked whales and dolphins.
I was asking because some dolphins are also known as porpoises e.g …

Common Dolphin also known as White-bellied Porpoise

Northern Rightwhale dolphin, also known as Pacific Rightwhale Porpoise

Southern Rightwhale dolphin, also known as Mealy-mouthed Porpoise

and there are many more

Why is there that confusion if porpoises are specific creatures all in one family?

]]> I am trying to find out a subject to research on for a project. It has to involve waves. I really liked the idea of researching about they way dolphins communicate with waves, but another class mate of mine is already doing that. So I though about whales. Does anyone know if whales also use sound waves to communicate underwater?
thankkkkk youuuu:)
