Hump-backed Whales, Alaska

A few Hump-backed Whales, never tired of seeing these beautiful creatures blowing, surfacing and fluking. We saw 72 from our side of the ship. Not a bad count !

We had one 'blow' at the side of the ship whilst we were in a harbour that it actually wet us, never forget that moment x

And this is the fin of an Orca !  We saw a total of 5 on our cruise. Afraid no pods of them. Our Captain announced that over the years their numbers had dropped each year and in the stretches where he used to see pods of Orcas on each voyage, none are seen now.
