Hello everyone,
The past week has been filled with excitement as we have begun to see humpbacks in our part of the Bay of Fundy. We began with some young juveniles closer to home but in the past week a large number of adults have began feeding further “offshore”. There’s no way to know how long these whales will continue to feed in our area but we are hopeful they will stay for a while.
Here are some pics from the past week
