Whale and Booby Watch 2/2/2010
Captain Steve and Susan and Megaptera enthusiasts wandered in search of their quarry and found..a brown Booby! Sitting in a boat. There are some Booby's nesting in these here parts and we've seen a few around. They dive from the air & plunge into the water to grab fish with their pointed beaks Booby's have air sacs under the skin of their face to help absorb the shock of impact. How cool is that?! Okay, onto the whales. We were fortunate to spend time with two whales, who breached and and did repeated head slaps up, out and back down onto the water. They delivered us home to Keauhou Bay. Mahalo Kohola. More pics at www.thecottoncandystudio.com.

Steve - Excellent stuff! I noticed the background of the whale shot looks familiar.
