As soon as I got back to my car after getting off the Voyager from Friday afternoon’s whale watching trip, I called Diane with a full report. Great trip. We started out with a pod of Risso’s dolphins, then found the first blue whale less than a mile from the harbor entrance. In all we saw four different blue whales, including one that made a close approach coming closer and closer to the boat until it dove just fifty yards away.…

The blue whale is the largest animal to ever live on this planet. And for a long time what that meant to humans was that it yielded great mass of meat and blubber. Whalers pursued the blue whale without mercy and the slaughter only ended when their numbers where so low that it became unprofitable to hunt them. There was a time when hundreds of thousands of these giants roamed the oceans of the…

But both Ramona and Kenny must both be very proud of a…
