Gray Whale Mum and Calf
San Ignacio Lagoon is one of the best places in the world to see Gray whales and their calves up close. During the calving season you can go out into the lagoon in a small boat (called a panga), and after a short wait, the whale mum and calf will come up to you. They (mainly the calf) love to rub themselves against the boats and also to be scratched! You really get a close up look into their eyes! Then, just when you start to feel at one with each them, they blow salt water in your face and all over your camera! But it’s worth it!!!

Entirely captivating. Glad that these whales still manage to survive.
I have never seen them, yet. Prolem is I am opposed to the wanton, unnecessary use of planes so I will not take a plane or own a car. In Holland the Dutch RSPB works together with dozens of travel agencies to organize a socalled Bird Festival. 30 of 60 stalls were taken by private firms, companies focused on selling their dirty trips to ´Bird and Nature lovers´.To make money.
