About
Observation Post #8
Point Piedras Blancas, California, United States
Biologist
Wayne Perryman (with National
Marine Fisheries Service) counts the mothers and calves
that pass Point Piedras Blancas. The new babies are on their
first
journey north each spring. The cows and calves are the last whales
to leave the warm lagoons in Mexico and swim north. A team
watches 12 hours a day, six days a week.
