Fantastic blog! Great pictures. I am a big fan of whales. Have you heard of a book called Leviathan by Eric Dolin? Very interesting look at history of whaling in America, if you're interested. Glad it all came to a stop--whales are fascinating?

Do "right" whales exist any more?

Thanks for the comment Chris.

Yes, Northern Right Whales still exist although we do not see them in our local waters.
