He's Coming Right For Us!
This one is from the same video footage as the jaw picture. Again, he surfaced just 20-30' from our boat near the port side of our stern so I turned the camera just in time to catch his dorsal fin heading straight for our boat as he apparently dove UNDER our boat. Very exciting and a bit scary, this one! The next time he surfaced it was in front of the boat on the starboard side. It was raining so I was filming from inside the salon looking out the port window. That's why you can see our lifeline in the picture. (Note: The reason the whale looks so small is that this is JUST the dorsal fin and a wee bit of his back. Humpbacks have tiny dorsal fins compared to the size of the rest of their bodies.)
