Lars already posted that there was a dead cetacean on the beach at Tierra
del Mar this past weekend.  Photos are at

The very long dorsal fin suggests that this was a Risso's Dolphin (aka Grampus),
but I would be interested in an expert opinion.  Curiously, the head appears to 
have
been cleanly hacked off.

Thanks,
