Below: Atlantic Right Whales off Matanzas Inlet near St. Augustine were the rarest sighting of the trip. With a global population of only about 400 individuals, it was amazingly good fortune that we got to enjoy this mother and calf. Good job, Kim Hafner, for spotting them! The first three images show the mother, while the remaining images show the playing calf. Click any image to view higher-resolution versions. Hopefully the images of the mother will be sufficient for the research team to identify her.
