Yesterday was a beautiful sunny day so i decided to go out whale watching with my husband. Although it was a long distance to go (23 miles out and back from Brier Island) we had an incredible sighting of a minke whale breaching several times in the waves! Then 7 fin whales working as a group were sighted feeding. We even had one come out right beside the boat! You can really see how large these whales are when you are treated to a close encounter like we had yesterday. The seabirds we encontered yesterday was: Greater and Sooty Shearwaters, Puffins, Phalaropes, Northern Fulmar, Northern Gannets, Wilson Storm-petrels,and a common tern. Here are some pictures i took of our cruise yesterday.
