More Whale Watching (from the comfort of my couch)

It was very windy today - white caps a plenty out on the bay, but this evening, I noticed some white on blue that didn't look like a white cap, so got the binoculars out and sure enough, more whales close in to shore.

I saw them on and off for a couple of hours and then later saw a big splash and got the bins out again.

This time, it was a young humpback trying to breach - getting about half its body out of the water before splashing back in again. There were two or three adults nearby, so it was obviously juvenile, but it did its breaching about 10 times before it moved out of view from the couch.

I know, I'm showing off - I'll stop now.
