Hello whalewatchers,
We’ve had a busy morning with loads of pelagic birds including storm petrels, boobies, frigates, Craveri’s murrelet, shearwaters, Sabine’s gulls and red phalaropes. (Click to see some Birds of Baja from our tours!)
We came across a single humpback whale that was breaching and pectoral “flipper flapping” repeatedly. We spent over an hour watching this great performance by a humpback whale.
More later,

Hello whalewatchers,
We had a busy afternoon with another session with a humpback whale that was breaching and tail-lobbing. It was another great performance. (Notice the all white underside of the fluke on this whale.)
We were lucky to come across two very large herds of common dolphin with several thousand dolphins, along with frigatebirds, shearwaters, gulls and a few boobies. The first group of dolphins had a large group of sea lions with them. It is always great to spend time with dolphins.
The weather was pretty good throughout the day with a little breeze this afternoon.
Headed over night to the Cabo San Lucas and Gorda Banks areas for tomorrow.
