    Humpback visits Destin

    While I got my tanks filled today at ScubaTech, Carla showed me some pictures of a Humpback encounter the SeaCobra had on Saturday out by the Miss Louise. She sent me these pictures and I thought I'd share them:








    Psalm 104:24,25
    O LORD, how manifold are thy works! in wisdom hast thou made them all: the earth is full of thy riches.
    So is this great and wide sea, wherein are things creeping innumerable, both small and great beasts.

    Great pics!

    Little alarming tho, that's very very close to the shoreline.

    What's the odds of him ending up on the beach, he's already very lost, being in the gulf, right?

    That's really amazing!

    I wonder what sort of population they have in the Gulf. I know there's a fairly decent population of Sperm Whales & Killer Whales out there (a friend of mine works doing cetacean observation on the oil rigs in the Gulf and has shown me photos of both), but it doesn't seem that there have been very many studies on just how many of the larger cetaceans are present in there.

    The article in the paper today says that experts believe the whale to be in good health - for whatever that is worth ....
