Zipline Goldmember  1,295 posts Joined Jun 2005 Location: New Hampshire More info | Feb 24, 2013 05:13 | #1 I'm going through all of my pictures from the 2012 season because I'm making a book for the whale watch line I go out with. Here are some pics of an energetic little calf that we saw on 7/1/12. This calf's mother is a whale known as Reaper. We found them very late in our trip after a very slow day. Needless to say this little whale saved our day!         - Mandy

cicopo Goldmember  More info | Feb 24, 2013 22:36 | #12 Very nice set & lucky you to see them regularly. to date (and I'm old) I've never had the pleasure of seeing a whale & I've lived near the ocean as a child, visited it many times, and dive. A skill is developed through constant practice with a passion to improve, not bought.
