| Formed in 1991, The
Friends of the Moray Firth Dolphins have grown from a small number
of individuals who set up the group to provide opportunities for
watching and learning more about the dolphins into today's
still-growing membership of around 250. Seven years on the group now
have their own research boat, 'Delphis', and a keen committee whose
enthusiasm for dolphins has seen them evolve into the most organised
voluntary group of cetacean watchers in the Moray Firth. We gather data from our membership around the Firth, which is then passed on to Aberdeen University; Sea Watch, WDCS, the marine connection ,and the CRRU cetacean research and rescue unit. Other organisations such as the Whale and Dolphin Conservation Society and International Dolphin Watch also utilise the data The Friends of the Moray Firth Dolphins are also involved in raising awareness of the dolphins, with talks and slide shows in schools and at various groups in the area, and also at local fayres including our own annual Fun Day, held Findochty. With the aid of a grant from the C.W.S (Co-Op) we have been able to produce our own video entitled 'Dolphins in the Bay' and footage from this was used in the B.B.C program 'Nature Detectives'. We hope visitors to this site will find the information both useful and informative Can you Help??
