iReport —

I spent an entire day aboard one of the Dolphin Fleet boats in early May to do background research for a series of travel articles I will be doing and also prepare for an upcoming trip to Australia.

We saw a total of 33 humpbacks that day, including several named whales. Black Hole and Cygnus were bubble-net feeding together for quite a while. The seagulls were very interested~~but would occasionally rest~~as three of them on Cygnus' nose. We also saw Thumper, Draco and a whale named Pipette kept sailing by with he flipper in the air.

I can't wait to go out again--will try from Cape Ann this time. Any suggestions on which boat?
