Bye Bye Birdie... by elatedpixie

Bye Bye Birdie...

Hello Conrad... The birds were crazy close to being accidentally swallowed by this young Humpback whale. Fortunately none were. This time.

(It's wild how their blow hole resembles a nose)

Thank you for your comments - it keeps me inspired and gets me motivated!
You've done it again -- and again. Stupendous.

@pamknowler @gilbertwood @gilbertwood @aikimomm Thanks! I'm glad you're enjoying them - it was a magical experience - and the weather on the pier was brutal but then this guy would come up and we'd be like, what wind? lol and @aikiuser, YES - Keep bringing the cameras to work too - maybe one of these days we'll make a mad break for it '-)

astounding, am I getting this right, you were on a pier?

@wildhoop yes. It has been an amazing past few months! They've been coming right into the harbors. We are in such dire need of rain and while hoping for el nino to bring us rain - all the warm water it has been bringing has also brought bait :) for these guys to feast on. We've been very fortunate and when not at work, we're trying to get photos of the whales... it never gets old :-)

@elatedpixie that is just amazing. Over here in Sydney, I haven't seen as many whales this year as previous years. And never this close.

Wow Phyl, I hope you see them this year as close!
