Another trick (Megaptera novaeangliae)

Now he's learnt how to do it belly up!!

I remember now, it was mostly the youngsters who were leaping out of the water. I wonder how the mothers told them what they had to do, and how they knew when they were ready to leave?

And there's the city of Gold Coast as a background!

Great timing, lovely picture with the city in the background. I'm guessing that they watch their mothers to learn what she is doing?? Or maybe they just know how when they are born? Interesting, thanks Delia

Good questions. If we could teach ourselves to understand "whale", perhaps we'd learn the answers ;)
