Hello whalewatchers: We had a great morning of whalewatching with good looks at humpback whales. There were plenty of whales around the Gorda Banks area. Just about every direction you wanted to look, there were spouts or a breacher. Today’s photo is of a cow (at the surface) and calf that were tail-lobbing together, and the calf was breaching repeatedly.
In addition, we had a rarity today: rough-toothed dolphins. These are animals that we haven’t seen in this area before. We also spotted a few bottlenose dolphin and a red-billed tropic bird to add to the list today.
We stopped at Los Frailes for a beach walk and some birding, and we will have dinner here in a calm spot.
Headed north tonight.
