Whales and Wildlife
The South Pacific was alive with movement as humpback whales waltzed through the turquoise waters just off the coast. Their majestic presence was accompanied by the playful dance of seabirds, including swallows swooping low over the beach, catching the early morning light on their wings. The whales, with their flukes rising and splashing, created a symphony of waves, a fitting tribute to the end of winter.
