Just to let those of you that could not attend the WOS annual meeting in
Spokane, Richard Rowlett showed the video tape of the Right Whale
splashing around in the water. They took the tape from an airplane
looking right down on the whale. Truly amazing footage.

Northern Right Whales are one of the rarest whales in the world. This was
the first sighting for Washington this century.
