How rare is a blue whale breach? We have seen a handful in 5 years! See the eye at the curve of the mouth? |
Meet Blue Cadillac. This blue whale has odd upturned fluke tips like fins on a 1950's Cadillac. We have seen it for several years now. |
Huge, muscular and fast, blue whales are the largest animals on earth EVER for size and mass. |
Blues don't show their flukes as often as other whales, but when they do,
it is as graceful as a ballerina with a tail stock the size of a redwood tree. |
