Hello whalewatchers:
We had a great day today offshore with lots of life, beginning with several miles of scattered long-beaked common dolphin, lots of shearwaters, frigates and an occasional masked boobie.
After lunch we started to see blue whales and we spent some time following one very large blue whale. We saw a few other blue whales in that zone. A little while after that we came across an area where there were six blue whales and one fin whale. So the afternoon was very productive!
In addition there were a lot of red phalaropes–hundreds of them.
A good day was had by all.
Looking forward to tomorrow around “Lands End,” Cabo San Lucas.
