Howdy whalewatchers,

It’s been a great morning here on the water.  The day started with some bow-riding long-beaked common dolphin and then we saw a couple of blue whales – one fluked for us and got the tail way up in the air for some great photos.  (Click the link for some great photos and details about blue whales!) We have also have seen some sea turtles and Magnificent frigatebirds,  Brown boobies and some Sabine’s Gulls.

Howdy whalewatchers,

It was a slower afternoon for whalewatching,  but really good for watching birds and common dolphin.  Sightings of Cook’s petrels were abundant with lots of Black-vented shearwaters and Magnificent frigatebirds, too.@ McGrath

We are headed south to begin our part of the trip in the Sea of Cortez.  Here’s a shot of some fun folks caught enjoying some wine at sunset 🙂
