Today in front of the Marine hotel, this mother and calf were leisurely playing around with no clear direction

The mother has got an electronic tagging device attached to the top of the whale

Stopped at Gearings Point today and saw mother and calf heading East

Went to Roman Rock and saw these two toying around

Might be the last two Southern right whales in the bay

Will keep a look out every day

Late afternoon and stopped at Sievers Punt

Not a whale in sight, and then, two backs of whales

And the next moment, this young whale were having the time of his life, breaching non stop numerous times

Pure enjoyment for the whale and spectators

A wonderful sight

If this was the last sighting for the season, it sure was a great performance

Everyday now is a bonus seeing the whales
