Thanks, Diane. Once again, these are tightly cropped and not quite a sharp as I'd like, but it was fun to see the whales so close to our bluff. I heard a few before I spotted them!
Wow! Love those shots. Are they all taken from those rocks? The whale is spectacular. Reminds me of a few we have seen from my Dad's sailboat years ago -- always a thrill.
Thanks so much, Susan. Yes, they were all taken from the bluff that I walk along in our neighborhood. I'm always thrilled to see the whales so close (they're a resident pod that feed on the abundant krill in our area) and even happier for the tourists to experience a whale sighting. It never gets old to spot a blow from a whale's spout (or a fluke!).
So amazing! We went on a whale watching boat tour on one of our more recent travels but didn't see any whales. Would love to see these amazing creatures.
I always feel badly for the tourists who come to see the whales and there aren't any around that day. I've gone out on a boat twice and have seen whales both times, but it's so unpredictable. I'm so lucky that I can spot them on my daily walks. It's always a thrill.
How cool Les! Lots of awesome shots lately.

DeleteWhat a wonderful place to view the ocean and its largest inhabitants! I can almost feel the wind and smell the salt!
ReplyDeleteWe are so lucky to live here, Jenclair!
DeleteOh, how fun to see the whales! And on your daily walk, yet. Lucky you!
ReplyDeleteIt's always great fun to see them, Laurel! Yes, I am very lucky.
