Being waved at by a humpback! Very cool!
The circular spot behind the whale is called a 'footprint', it's the upsweep of it's tale and it moves it under the water. It moves upwards with the force of 1000 horsepower
The white part is the start of the underside of the whale. He was laying on his side, watching us watch him! We were in a 40 foot boat, the whale was between 50 and 60 feet long!
A mom and calf humpback playing around the boat in Bay Bulls. At one point, Justin (our guide on the tour) said that there were 50 whales in the Bay with us!
