Black bear cubs tend to stay close to their mother when they are walking the beach. If a noise startles them while we are watching from the boat they run to mother rather than up the beach for cover. They only go up the beach if the mother says and then it is into a tree. As the photo show they are almost synchronized with mother in their walking.
Humpback “Lazy Lunge Feed”
When the humpbacks feed they often lunge out of the water very quickly consuming as many herring as possible. Another lazier technique is to use the current to their advantage. The whales poke their mouth out of the water slowly, open and close it and let the current deliver krill and small baitfish to them. Although not as dramatic it is equally impressive and much easier to see and photograph.
