WHAT A DAY! It all came together today as we spent 3 hours of our 3.5-hour trip with whales and dolphins.
The day started with birdnado after birdnado, as has been typical the last week or so. Then whale spouts EVERYWHERE, a nice change of pace from yesterday's encounter. Whales are fast-moving animals, and things in the ocean are constantly dynamic. These humpbacks moved in overnight into the area; all of our life had been the day before. Whales lunged all around us; we were totally surrounded!
AS the feeding broke up a bit, two whales came over to check us out. These friendly whales pec slapped and turned an inquisitive eye towards us. Checkout the footage in the post below!
We ended the day with a massive pod of over 2,000 common dolphins.
Until Next Time,
The SBWW Crew
