Humpback Whale

I have just spent two weeks cruising around the Baja peninsula in Mexico without internet access but I'm back now. To kick things off here's an enormous Humpback Whale breaching with only the tail stock in the water. This was a female with a calf and it was as it she was teaching her calf how to breach as both animals breached repeatedly. This was taken off the Gorda Banks off the southern tip of the Baja peninsula which is a breeding area for Humpback Whales.
