My 2024 Whale watching plans are set for late September now. Talking to the Ranger at Green Cape and then seeing this on return, you know where you can find me then...

Great photos @AlisonMilton ! Could you please adjust the location so that it reflects where the animal was, rather than where you were standing? That way species records for this marine mammal won't occur on land. Thanks!
