It has been a difficult August this year with weather. Lots of fog and rain and now post-tropical storm "Irene", making survey days limited. There are definitely more right whales in the Bay this year than last year which was an unusually low number year for right whales. Several mothers and calves have been seen, as well as some surface active groups, indicating that males numbers are also good this year.
Hopefully, there will be a few more better weather days in the next month so the calves can be photo-documented.
