Here Come the Babies!
Do you see the baby with its syphopping mother? "Starting the last week in March, we’re counting the cow/calf pairs as they migrate northbound past a little point of land near San Simeon, California. Cows with calves pass very close to the beach at this site —generallywithin 200 meters—and often stop to nurse their young in the lee of the rocky point."
—Wayne Perryman, Leader of SWFSC Cetacean Health and Life History Program
