Everyone knows how friendly and clever dolphins are, but it seems unbelievable to ask a snorkeler for an abdominal massage. Thankfully, such a remarkable scene has recently been captured by the camera and it’s just adorable.
Wildlife photographer Elaine Farrell was waiting for a ferry on the initiative, a small island in Ireland’s Aran Islands. She discovered her most adorable scene. The very friendly bottlenose dolphin had the best time of its life when a polite snorkeler spoiled it while rubbing its belly. So she immediately picked up the camera and shot a beautiful moment.
As it turned out later, marine animals chased snorkelers and eventually they shared a very sweet moment. The female is sitting on the boat while the dolphins are rolling in the water while the snorkeler gently hugs them. “I was the only one in the harbor when I noticed someone snorkeling underwater with a dolphin,” a wildlife photographer told Irish Independent.
However, it seems that this was not the first time the two had interacted with each other. A dolphin called Dusty is a local celebrity who rushes to ask for a hug every time he sees a diver. It was the same this time! “They swam side by side,” Elaine said. “Then the dolphin follows the swimmer out of the water and rolls to rub his stomach. Dusty clearly enjoyed contact with humans.”
Two rare friends enjoyed the meeting for a few more hours! Watch a funny moment here:
