Leaving Crab Bay we came across 2 Humpback Whales fin slapping
What a show of nature....watched for over 15 mins!!!
A mom and a juvenile fin slapping and breaching
They would lay on their backs and flap both fins, side to side!!
We think they were attempting to stun the herring bait fish....both by slapping and breaching
