1,000 dolphins congregate in one spot
The Irish Whale and Dolphin Group (IWDG) is hoping the weather may lift and the huge group will move inshore to provide the public with a visual wildlife feast, fit for any David Attenborough-type programme.
The congregation was spotted in recent days by Michael Cottrell while he was fishing in the vicinity of the gas fields, around 30 to 35 miles south of the Old Head of Kinsale.
