 |
| In early 2002 we had right whales around for a few days, including a mother-calf pair. The calf, on right, is probably about 4 months old. |
The mother is seen here, displaying the highly arched jaw. The closed blowhole is on the right, and the tip of the snout is to the left. |

 |
| We often see Finback whales in our study area, and they often feed on the same prey as humpback whales. |
In this image, a lunge feeding finback feeds on its side near the boat. Note the throat grooves on the right and baleen on the roof of the mouth (left). |
| White-sided Dolphin |
Humpback Whale |
 |
 |
| Periodically we see Atlantic White-sided dolphins in the same area as the other marine mammals, though they typically do not stick around the area for long. |
Humpback whales are also back in the area, and this one, Reaper, was surface feeding when we saw it. |
