Playful dolphins jumping and kicking fish

Playful dolphins jumping and kicking fish... The dolphins were going off yesterday. Lots of jumping and fish kicking. One dolphin attempted a back flip, but clearly needed more practice :-) Fish kicking is possibly the most common hunting technique used by dolphins in the St Pete area and it's very effective. Some dolphins are much better at it than others and it takes the calves a long time to learn it. Dolphins kick the fish with their tails. It stuns or injures the fish so it's easy to grab when it lands. This video shows the first time I've seen a dolphin kick a fish repeatedly. Practice makes perfect! ..#dolphins #nature #boat #clearboat #boating #awesome #amazing #ocean #fish #fishing #outdoors #florida #stpete #tampa #animals #wildlife #naturephotography #torqeedo #drone #aerialvideo #dolphin
