This Humpback calf was photographed in the Bay of Fundy, off St. Andrew, New Brunswick. The boat crew said it had already been entangled in fishing gear, and struck by a boat, but it still came close enough to our boat for us to get a good look. You can see some scars on its back. It even breached, and I missed the shot...AGAIN!! The only reason I didn't feel too bad was, one of the boat crew members said she had seen breaches all season, and that was the first time she had gotten a photo. Try, try again!!
