Kate Bloch was at the right place to capture this beautiful photo of a breaching Humpback Whale. Just imagine you are in a little boat close to this big cetacean when the whale crashes back into the ocean. Talk about rocking the boat!

Humpback Whales are feeding off the Mendonoma Coast now. Mothers have been seen with their calves. Scott Mercer tells me the calves will be going off on their own soon.

Thanks to Kate for allowing me to share her photo with you here.

It's sunny and warm here today, with the breeze picking up this afternoon. It's a great time to be on the Mendonoma Coast!
