We met the friends there and they had taken pictures prior to our arriving. I only got one picture before it swam off.
My friend trying to get it to bring it's head above water. It's very friendly and will play with people.
It obviously saw or heard this barge going off with left over crab processing stuff.
The whale was there as the men slowed the barge down and were looking into the water for some time.
We then came back here for a coffee when all of a sudden there was a crow attacking a raven. The raven was at least twice the size of the crow but you can't tell from the picture. Like a friend said once, "They're as big as dogs." , lol
These are just a few of the pictures my friends husband took.

Oh wow, that's amazing OC you lucky thing to get that close to one. Is it still hanging round your bay do you know, maybe it will be back and you can get some more pics.
Jan, yes, he's been hanging around. You never know, I may be able to get more pics.
Oooooh - how exciting to have a visiting whale (and a fighting raven and crow too!!)! Glad to hear you dried and dressed first however! :D
Utterly amazing and great that you got to see it "for real" OC. Fingers crossed he'll visit again to pose for more pictures.

Wow! Me green? A Raven and Beluga; I really love the pic of the Crow attacking the Raven.
You must have been thrilled yourself.
Great to get your own shot of the whale yourself. Don't you love that expressive snout?
