Lots of people think that January and early February is too early to have physical contact with whales....but it can happen any time of the season. On
Feb.4th nomads MICK, RenoJoe and some other old friends set out with me for some whale magic...and Oh the fun we had that day!
In this video, this particular mother and calf are very very friendly. The calf was about a month old and just learning the ropes about pangas. Mom
taught him how to push the boat around and how to make the humans shriek by spouting in their faces!
Enjoy the fun with us...
so I am just getting warmed up as I begin my video making of this year's whale adventures....so go easy on me...hahahaha! What I noticed is that my
GoPro camera footage is wobbly. I got a new stick this year that was a bit longer and it seems like it is not so stable. Hopefully my stick holding
improves with time. I love the angle from high up so you see the whole whale. It's hard to concentrate on a camera when frolicking with playful
whales! they sure arent great quality but I just put these little videos together as souvenir so my guests have something to remember their whale
experience!
I began videoing whales as a tool to study whale behaviour and calf development and my goal is to someday produce a documentary on Gray Whales at Ojo
de Liebre so I am saving my best footage for that!
The video does not show up on my Nomad screen.I see your post, as well as the follow-up post.
I also do not see your avatar in the little window on the left.
Perhaps there is something wrong with my computer settings?
(I have not been able to see anyones videos, and I usually have to go to YOUTUBE to see whatever video gets posted here).
pretty cool Joe...it was amazing how all of you just happened to come together..again...at the same time at the lagoon...magical! Look forward to
seeing the photo. I will send you the link to the vimeo video that is much nicer as it is higher definition.
Was out fishing off San Diego last summer when a Blue Whale surfaced and passed by about 75 feet away. My buddy and I looked at each other with a
scowl like the other guy farted. Wasn't me we both said. It was heinous....
that's right Mick...I will send you the Vimeo link to your email. The reason I post the youtube ones here is that they load much quicker. Anyone can
go to my Vimeo channel and see the good quality ones...it is under whale magic tours.
Woody...YOU are heinous! There has been a blue whale hanging around here too as those little langostillas are everywhere.
