June 6, Two big Sunfish!

While we have had early sightings of traveling Humpback whales yesterday today was another Sunfish day, fantastic to have a few in the last week, when we previously had not seen any.  No photos from today as the overcast light was awkward.  We went through last years notes, activity along the coast should be increasing very soon.

One at Wright Island and one at Waitpinga Cliffs :)   great photo by Elizabeth Steele-Collins

May 27, No Whales but a Sunfish visit

Last Sunday we were out cruising the islands off of Victor Harbor when a Sunfish visited, we haven't seen any before in the area.  Such a beautiful animal peacefully swimming by The Big Duck.  Sunfish can grow to up to 3.3m in length and weigh more then 2t!
