The big, grey at the tail to white at the head with NO bottle nose are Rissos. The ones we tend to see in the largest pods, which are much smaller with a lighter grey side are Common Dolphin. Then the bigger grey with the bottle nose are of course Bottle nose, generally in much small groups.

These must have been Common Dolphin. None was longer than about five feet. I did see some really large dark curved dorsal fins out in the distance. Hard to say how large but they were much bigger than these little guys. Maybe they were the Risso's.
