Here are some photos I took today of some Humpback Whales in Santa Cruz County, California:
I see whales pretty often, but they are usually very far out from shore. Today there were at least three whales feeding about half a mile out, which is pretty close actually.
In these photos you can see the distinctive hump.
The final shot shows the whale's fin sticking out of the ocean, with gulls hovering nearby, hoping to garner some collateral seafood.
Wow that is so cool! I need to move or something because I would love to see whales but never see them around cause of course I'm near Tampa..but wow. Thanks for sharing. This made my night.
Awesome, I'm really glad you enjoyed these. Seeing whales never gets old for me, and I love to share them with other people.
