Couplet #2123 who is the daughter of Drippy-nose AKA Sonnet #1123 has been seen on the calving ground with her fifth calf. Sonnet is the daughter of Kleenex #1142. This increases Kleenex's family to six great grand calves, and, of course, the existing 9 grand calves and 8 calves.
It is nice to see that the daughter (#1301 Half Note) of the first right whale in the right whale catalogue (#1001 Fermata) has a new calf. Fermata hasn't been seen since 1992 but her daughter has been successfully carrying on the family genes.
