This afternoon about five miles offshore in the Pacific from Isla Magdalena I came across a pod of humpback whales. I got this sequence of one of them sounding.

Exctiing events in nature! Nothing can compare to the sights we see when at sea. Beautiful candid photos of that humpback, Bill. Savor the memories.

It won't be too long before we are down in Mag Bay with the boat all rigged for action. Hope to see you then.

awesome....I couldnt scroll fast enough to get to the tail! There sure are lots of Humpbacks this year eh! Looks like more chose to vacation in baja this year rather than Hawaii or Costa Rica...the grays have started to pass by here too now...saw 3 right in the bay a couple days ago and there are more every day now.
