so long humpback

Today was a surprize to say the least! Saw T44, T41 and T41a milling around Race rocks. Apparently they'd been there most of the day sorta bashing a sealion here and there but not feeding. Talk about suspence as the predators pace the smorgasboard of prey that lay on the rocks and frolic in the waters around them!!! After that we looked at a mother and calf humpback whale. Got a lovely look at the calf upside down underwater and got a lovely view of it's nose! Completely calm out there, and an abundance of wildlife was all around us!
