This evening we had the privilege to hang out with 5 fin whales!! With another couple in the distance we never made it to. Absolutely nonstop action. The first was a duo swimming together and then a trip that would pop up all together and were very curious of our boat. Today they did not show off their speed but instead their spectacular moves by lunging out and one even flashing their tail (likely the same individual from earlier today). I faked everyone out before but this was actually my last trip as naturalist for SDWW thank for everything and thank you to the wildlife for giving me a stellar send off!
