THIS week we took a whale search cruise around Phillip Island. It’s early in the whale migration season and already the crew of Wildlife Coast Cruises have sighted 60 humpback whales heading for the warm waters of Queensland. These numbers are good, they say, and let us know the numbers of humpback whales are increasing every year.
For the last two seasons, I’ve been receiving text messages letting me know when and where whales have been sighted off the Island. It’s a wonderful feeling knowing that they’re there and that, even with so much out of balance in the world, these magnificent creatures are holding to the steady rhythm of their migration cycle.
