Last night when I was walking around Ladestien I saw this. Does anyone which type of fish is this?


I captured this last night in Trondheim.

  1. That looks like a harbour porpoise, also known to norwegians as a “nise”.
    Very common in the fjords, at least in that fjord since I live there myself.

  2. No, I’m not an expert, but it seems interesting!  It could be a normal fish though. But I don’t think it’s trout, because it’d … *shine* more…. 

  3. Yes, as others has mentioned this is almost certainly a porpoise (nise), and it’s a mammal, not a fish 🙂 They are pretty common along the coast of Norway 🙂

  4. Porpoise is fairly common in Norwegian fjords, but still always a treat to get to see them!
