Fin whales are back!

We went out to the western edge of Jeffreys on Saturday following a fisherman's report of a couple fin whales and a humpback. We didn't find the humpback, but saw a big fin whale, who was really nice to us in that it only took 2 1/2 minute dives and never went really far, so we got some great looks! The whale was probably about 65 feet long or so, and we really appreciated its size when a tiny (in comparison) minke whale surfaced right near it!
