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

Happy World Whale Day! Here is an illustration I made for our local SF Bay Area branch of #industrialworkersoftheworld a few years ago. Let’s care for our whale comrades. They are such an inspiration 🐋

I hear it’s World Whale Day! Personally I’m up for turning the world over to whales for a while.

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.

Feb 18 is #WorldWhaleDay
We can observe two different ecotypes of orcas in the Salish Sea: the transient and the resident orcas. The transient orcas travel between California and Alaska while the resident orcas live in the Salish Sea and are listed as endangered.

Today is #WorldWhaleDay 🐳​
I had the chance to encounter humpback whales off the coast of Vancouver Island and was impressed by their huge size. I saw this one in the Salish Sea near Campbell River.

The blue whale grows to 98 feet in length and is the largest whale on Earth. The smallest whale, the toothed dwarf sperm whale, grows between six feet, seven inches and eight feet, 10 inches.

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.⁠

Happy #WorldWhaleDay from #Scotland on the Firth of Forth.

A whale can produce hundreds of gallons of urine in a single day. So on #WorldWhaleDay, please take a moment to consider this very important question: How much of the ocean is whale pee (and worse)? 🐋 🌊 https://www.livescience.com/55189-how-much-of-ocean-is-whale-pee.html

Today (Feb 19th) is #WorldWhaleDay 🐳
A day that raises awareness for these majestic animals. For centuries they have been hunted for varying reasons and now the challenge of loss of habitat is upon them.

My humpback whale linocut for #WorldWhaleDay.

This lino block print of a humpback whale is printed in white and grey ink on lovely handmade paper in a deep blue.

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/

Apart from Wildebeests migrations from #Kenya to #Tanzania, in the month of July to September, there is also humpback whales and dolphins migrations from Watamu coast to #Somalia Coast for breeding in the same period.
