Time and budget management can be an exhaustive task, but definitely worth it every day!

They form a male colony and use these beautiful beaches as a haulout site (i.e., a place on land to rest, breed, and moult), could get used to it!🏝️🌊🌞

While other whales may find copepod densities low in surface waters, the fine baleen structure of the sei whale (Balaenoptera borealis) allows them to efficiently filter these surface waters.
It’s no wonder that most times I’ve seen, they were just below the surface, breathing only occasionally
