Naturalist Veronica had just wrapped up her talk on marine mammals when whales were spotted just ahead of the ship this afternoon. Several mother and calf pairs were spotted in the shallows along with individuals feeding in deeper waters. We were delighted to witness pectoral fin slapping and breaching as we watched and photographed these amazing creatures.
