Dec. 15, 2007 - Right Whale in St. Augustine |
| I just spotted my first Right Whale of the season. I called her into the Right Whale Hotline (1-888-97-WHALE). Julie at the hotline contacted Fish & Wildlife (FWC). FWC sent out two planes to investigate. They determined it was a Right Whale with her calf. This particular Right Whale was first spotted two weeks ago and has been hanging out in our area from Flagler Beach to S. Ponte Vedra. I guess she found a great spot and decide to vacation here. Her name is Arpeggio (no, I didn't name her). She is very distinctive in that she has a scar on her right shoulder. So, if you see her and her baby swimming around, welcome them to our wonderful area here in northeast Florida, just a couple miles north of our nation's oldest city, St. Augustine. |
