Dear Colleagues

As reported three days ago OceanCare experienced an extraordinary sighting of a humpback whale south of Nice, France. Due to the great interest in this sighting I posted some of the most interesting photos in terms of identification of the animal online. Unfortunately, we don't have any good picture from the fluke of the animal as it showed us its fluke only once from rather far away. However, the photos of the fin allow to identify the animal as it has rather unique marks in particular on the right side (and in front) of the fin. To access the photos please follow the link below:

If you recognise the animal please let me know and if you use any of the photos please credit OceanCare.

Thank you.

Best regards,
Sylvia
