We thought the whale season was over. Done. Whales gone.
But, Thursday morning, 21 March, the phone rang. A mother-calf pair, #3370, off Surf Club. They went slowly south, and by 5:30, they were off Varn Park.
The surprise is that this pair was sighted off Georgia on March 8, headed north. Somehow, and for some reason, they changed their mind. Two weeks went by. Then, the Surf Club sighting!
On Friday, 22 March, they were sighted again, just south of Grenada Blvd. in Ormond Beach, still heading south! They continued south at a steady pace until we left them at Main St. Pier in Daytona Beach just before 5 PM.
Will we see them when they return north? Keep your eyes peeled just in case!
