Whale Tails



We have had so many whale experiences, yet each one is incredible.  Yesterday we watched a whale for ten minutes, hoist itself out of the water up to its eyes, tail first to slap the water with its nearly entire body, over and over and over again.  At first we thought it was fighting a predator or that it had been caught in a crab or fish line but as we neared, it was apparent that it wasn't endangered.  Then a grand finale; it torpedoed completely out of the sea, head first for a full body slam, quieted down to breathe and we sailed away.
