Barnacled tail of a humpback whale (Megaptera novaeangliae).
Numerous humpback whales (Megaptera novaeangliae). Here, three can be seen spraying at once. There were more than 20 humpbacks feeding here, on a dense underwater patch of krill about 400' deep. At times, we spotted more than 10 whales at once around the boat, with some whales approaching curiously for a closer look, and others lingering for several minutes on the surface before sounding again and again to feed.
