Whales normally breach too far from the shore to get any pictures or video
footage but on calm days, they tend to come in closer. On one of my last days
at the coast, I went to the shops at the small town of Port Edward and decided
to buy something for lunch and take it down to the shore to eat.
There was a Humpbacked Whale just off the shore!! Lunch was forgotten as I
grabbed cameras and tried to capture the images of it and it was not till I put
the footage on the computer, that I noticed something interesting......
What surprised me in all of this was that the fishermen on the shore, just
a few meters from the whale, took absolutely no notice of it even though it was
basically swimming under their fishing lines!! Can people be so blind to things
which happen in nature?
Dang that seems close. Are they blind fishermen?
