Dolphins, and Whales, and Drones, Oh My!



A camera attached to a quadcopter drone deployed over the Pacific captured a dolphin stampede last month off Southern California and provided several other unusual overhead views of ocean life.The Go Pro camera-equipped quadcopter was launched from a small inflatable craft about six miles off Dana Point during the Jan. 16 dolphin stampede. Dave Anderson, of Capt. Dave's Dolphin and Whale Safari in Dana Point, said the stampede numbered into the thousands and provided "jaw-dropping footage" unlike anything he previously captured on video.
