It's the rainy season, in Panama and the raging rivers are often too dangerous for my old ass to safely collect in, so tooling around spotting whales has been an interesting pass time.
Whale season

Don’t know but I think being in the river seems safer to me than out there!
Love whale season. My parents live on North Stradbroke Island in Queensland, Australia. It is on the migratory path of the humpback whales between Antarctica & Hervey Bay where they birth their calves. When they go past Straddie, they are often easily spotted of the cliffs & headland surfacing for air, tail slapping and breeching. A magnificent sight. The only catch is that the great whites follow them up from the cooler southern waters in the effort to snack on a few calves, so the swimming risk does slightly increase around that time of year 
How big a tank do i need to keep one? I think i could get away with a 55 gallon
Lol, I was just limbering up my muscular digits to type the exact same thing!How big a tank do i need to keep one? I think i could get away with a 55 gallon

, what happened to the obligatory close-up shot of your hand with a couple of test tubes in it? 
Are they humpbacks?
I remember seeing a pod of them breaching when I was on a whale-watching tour at 14 years old with my father off the coast of Newfoundland. I remember seeing them underwater was so eerie - they were bigger than our boat!
I was scared, although I never would have admitted it at the time. They were just so big!

I think he spotted a great white patrolling the area and thought it best if he kept his arms!!!
Oh, here we go, someone dragging a serious thread down with crazy remarks! I think a 120 would be better, but you'd sure have to give the decor a miss! Lol.
