Whale Watch Sightings 4-1-22

After the rain and fog cleared this morning, we headed to the NW corner of Stellwagen bank in search of wildlife. We first spotted several minke whales surrounding us, including a several northern gannets. We also had some curious grey seals check us out! Their heads are more football-shaped compared to the harbor seal. Check out their very distinct look in our photos! We also spent time with female humpback Lavalier – great to see her still on the bank since last weekend!

Cheers,
