BELUGA WHALE SPRAYS WATER!

Posted by Anne (White Rock, Canada) on 8 April 2008 in Animal & Insect and Portfolio.

This is the female whale again - she seems to be the smartest out of the three of them! Here she went to the corner of the pool and sprayed water over an eight year old boy who volunteered to stroke her head over the glass barrier (Mackintosh supplied for him by the Aquarium staff). I couldn't get a shot with the boy in it for people. But it is a delightful part of the show! After that she showed her tail - or so I thought - but as she came down she swiped the water with her tail and showered the child even more! :-)

Tomorrow she soaks her trainer with the same tricks! Come back and see!

Please go ahead and give me constructive criticism where needed! If there is anything that I can change that really needs changing and I can do it in editing - then I will change it and re-post the photo!
