With only a week to go till the end of the whale season, the whales are still out there but are more interested in getting back to Antarctica than entertaining us.

Today was my last day for the season as I am heading off to Canada in a couple of days to see the Polar Bears in Churchill.

I was really hoping for an exciting morning and even managed to talk my 20 year old son to come out for the morning. Unfortunately the most the whales offered us, was short down times and lots of flukes.

The scar marks on this fluke are most probably the result of an Orca attack.

I wish every one who has followed my whale site this season a very safe and happy ending to the year and I look forward to bringing more stories and photos to you in 2010.

The season starts on June 1st.
