I'm just back from four days at Provincetown, Cape Cod.
On Saturday, we had whales all around the boat—many mother humpbacks with their calves. It seemed that the mothers were teaching their youngsters how to catch fish. Amazing sight as they blew a bubble net around the fish, then come up inside the net and scoop up the fish in their open mouths, then squeeze out the water through the baleen plates in their mouths. I've watched whales dozens of times, but this time it was unbelievable. A photographer took movies of the whole trip,and I ordered a DVD copy of it. Can't wait to see it.
