This may be one of the last whale posts for this Spring. They are about gone for the summer, but this morning Lauri and I drove out to Lanai Lookout just to see if we could spot a few.
After a while, what appears at first to be a dolphin, began breaching out in front of the Lookout. I put the camera on it and soon realized it was a Humpback calf!
Over the next fifteen minutes or so, that little calf breached repeatedly - over and over!







Then the cow got into the act. The calf would breach and she would tail slap. That went on for another 5 minutes or so.





She gave up after a while and just let the little guy keep going.









What a fun way to spend a half hour!
