Dolphins feeding at Chanonry Point

THIS is the breathtaking moment the King of Fish became a plaything - and then lunch - for a bottlenose dolphin. An unlucky salmon, reckoned to be more than 3ft long and weighing in excess of 20lbs, was repeatedly tossed into the air before disappearing down the dolphin’s gullet. The amazing close-up sequence was captured by a retired financial services manager from Kirkcaldy, Fife. Allan Brown, 65, visited the Moray Firth in the hope of seeing dolphins and was rewarded with a display of hunting mastery. The keen amateur photographer had been waiting on the shore at Chanonry Point on the Black Isle for four hours last Friday when the one-sided battle unfolded. (Allan Brown/Deadline News)
