Gray Whales

On Friday, I was in the ocean at a beautiful beach in Malibu. It was an absolutely perfect California day.

To make the day even more spectacular, I was within 100 feet / 30.48 meters of not one, not two, but three gray whales. To see such a large creature up close is simply breath-taking.

Unfortunately, because of whaling, the population of gray whales has decreased. Check out this link to learn more.
