This is the very last whale (humpback) picture I took on the very last Provincetown Whale Watch of 2012. but I am hearing the right whales may be returning early again this year, so I’ve been keeping my eyes on the Whale Alert App, and I’ve noticed some activity nearly every day the last two weeks!
This is from this past Wednesday. The “whale tale” icons show where the listening buoys are in the shipping lane, and the yellow indicates where the hydrophones that are mounted on the buoys specifically to detect right whales have detected them – cool!
