These Are the Right Whales

[justaprogressive]

You soar upward through a golden yellow sea, break the surface and leap, high in the air,
dipping and turning with your great flippers, hanging and laughing so weightlessly high that it
feels like you'll never come down. Up and up and up you dance, whirling, out of the sea, into
the air, beyond to the stars...

2. aww thanx Peggy

Had to rip them off a DVD slideshow this AM.
Part of a project I made for the halfway house where I was working at the time
( a rare case of my not having 5 backups of the data...just 4 copies of the DVD!)

The power of these animals just boggles my mind. TY for sharing!

5. I saw some at a whale watch in Monterrey.

Cape May NJ and other sites along the east coast also offer whale watching.

I took photos and one of them was a calf.--- crew member asked if I would forward it so they could use it to identify it in future by comparing barnacles and marks on the tail.
