Newly established citizen science project aiming to collect data to ID whales & dolphins in the River Clyde. Linked with Clyde cetacean sightings pages 🐬
We are appealing after a boat was seen near dolphins off Greenock on Wed 14 June and jet skis near a whale on Sun 11 June. It is an offence to intentionally disturb or harass these protected species. Call 101 if you can help - Inc 3714 of 14/6/23

Buzzing to have had my first ever humpback whale sighting this afternoon - just off RNAD Coulport. Too far away for pictures but had a clear view with and without binoculars - awesome 🤩🐋 @CWDW_research
Amazing to watch so many Gannets diving off of The Esplanade this afternoon 🤩 Clearly lots of food around for them - great for the birds and our cetaceans 🐬🤞🏼@CWDW_research

@CWDW_research@ScotWildlife@VisitScotland Three dolphins (we think!) spotted in the Firth of Clyde between Largs and @yachthavenlargs today! People were telling each other along the walkway, so everyone just stopped to watch. The dolphins certainly put on a wee show for us all!

A great day at the #MarineForum2022 - a massive thanks to @strandings and @whalesorg for hosting. We had a great day networking and introducing the public to our wee project - can’t wait to watch what happens over the next wee while 💙
