Dolphin mom and newborn calf chase fish off coast of Florida

ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. (FOX 13) - An adorable video shows a dolphin and her newborn calf swimming and chasing fish in the water off St. Petersburg.

Michael McCarty with See Through Canoe Company recorded video from above as the pair swam on Thursday.

The calf watched as its mother jumped out the water several times and swam upside down while she rounded up fish for her and her baby.

McCarty said the calf is likely only a few days old.

The drone used in McCarty's video has a telephoto lens, which he says enables him to record video while keeping a safe distance from the animals. The drone also has low noise propellers so as not to disturb wildlife.
