    Once while boating with friends in the Keys (just south of Islamorada), we saw a large group of dolphins in a circle. As we approached slowly, a few warily tried to warn us off by coming up out of the water. I asked my friend to cut the engines so we could see what was going on. The circle of adult dolphins, about 25 or so, had formed a circle while two adult dolphins were teaching a few baby dolphins how to swim and dive up and down (and maybe hunt). We watched for 30 minutes or so, and they finally swam off with the little ones tight within the group, to keep them from predators. One of the coolest things I've ever seen. :hi5:
