                | Position at 1200 UTC 15 May 27 39.276n 019 58.170w 24 hour run 116nm Wind NW F3 Yesterday evening at sunset a little bird flew onto 
the boat, after circling us for about an hour, and perched on some ropes. This 
morning we found it in a wet corner in the cockpit and put it in the bucket 
lined with kitchen paper. Unfortunately it did not survive to fly away. We had 
another bird that managed to make its way into the saloon unseen last night. He 
did survive to fly away (and leave his mess behind!). Today just before lunch we saw 2 pale brown 
animales in the water. Not whales, possibly dolphins, we did not get close 
enough to have a really good look. |
