Humpback Whale Fluke Up Dive

1210whaleflukeup

When humpbacks are about to dive they will often take a breath and then roll their body forward and dive, throwing their tail flukes into the air and exposing the ventral surface of the tail. When the tail of the humpback appears out of the water in an upward arch this is the best time to identify individual whales.
