I got a chance to go whale watching in the Bay of Fundy this week. We set out from St. Andrews, N.B., and the Humpbacks were playful, doing a lot of tail lobbing, much to our delight. Why do they do it...nobody knows!!

You made a very beautyful photo Jane. Colours are amazing. The black tail stands out perfectly over the white curtain of water. Very well done. So glad you have easily access to those marvellous moments.
