For #WorldWhaleDay I have a photo of an orca and gulls enjoying the herring spawn on the east coast of Vancouver Island. I took this photo last year during a private photo tour.
I offer group photo tours and also private ones during the herring spawn. Contact me for details or check my website: https://www.catherinebabault.com/workshops

Some whale #linocut prints for #WorldWhaleDay! I’ve had the great privilege of seeing humpbacks and orcas (and other species) when working at sea. They seem as curious about us as we are of them.
I would love to see the blue whale and narwhals, in my other prints, too.
I hope we always live in a world where whales can thrive.

Today is World Whale Day - a day to celebrate our aquatic friends and appreciate the vital role they play in our ecosystems. But what is it that makes whales so special?
We asked wildlife scientist and whale expert Dr Vanessa Pirotta to give us her most interesting whale facts; here is 60 Seconds of Science.

On #WorldWhaleDay spare a thought for all the extinct prehistoric whales.
There are 8 toys in the whale category on the Dinosaur Toy Blog so far, including several versions of the serpent-like and mistakenly named whale Basilosaurus, and the appropriately named sperm-whale relative Livyatan: https://dinotoyblog.com/classification/whale/
