Wow! I've only ever seen one basking shark, and that was on Gwenver
Beach,
Sennen. A load of seagulls were harassing it, but it seems unperturbed
and
gently swam north towards Cape Cornwall. Best time I had at Sennen was
when
surfing and 4 bottlenosed dolphins joined us, the dolphins were huge and
they never got very close but to see them surfing for fun, as we were
doing
in the waves was magical.

Drifting wildly OT now, but do let me know when you're next down this
part of the world, I've got a large collection of body boards, (partly
due to our vistors not being able to fit them in the car on the way
home!)

See www.marinediscovery.co.uk/sightings.html for some recent shark/
dolphin pics

Still on the wildlife front, at least 5 people have been bitten by
adders at Gwithian in the last few weeks, one was hospitalised for a
week.
