Crikey what a journey this has been. After a week of travelling, days spent battling through monster waves (10 metres at one point), and lots of card games with fellow Antarctic adventurers, my boots have finally hit the ground and I’ve spent the morning surrounded by Gentoo penguins. 🐧

Happy #WorldWhaleDay for yesterday everyone! I’ve just got back from an incredible weekend whale watching from the Cornish coast path with many other like minded whale spotters. Check out this breaching #humpbackwhale 🐋

Top afternoon with the @mammalsocietyyouth.bsky.social clan at the Natural History Museum today. Great to meet all of their new Young Ambassadors, hatch plans for 2025, and have a sneak behind the scenes at the museums extensive mammal collection. 🐬🐋

I’ve never seen so many #humpbacks in one place! I’ve been lucky to spot them off Vancouver and a mother and calf near Sydney Harbour, but this encounter in #Skjervøy was next level.

Time to plan more #whale sized adventures for 2025! 🐋

Turn your sound up for #humpbacks 🐋 After a few days of stormy weather and cancelled trips, being able to share the water with over 10 humpbacks cruising through calm Norwegian waters off the coast of #Skjervoy was incredible. 🐋

Hello @bsky.app 😊 Does #wildlife get any better than this?

No glass, no walls, no tricks.

Just two impressive male #orca, swimming wild and free. 🐬
