The pectoral fins of humpback whales can be 10 - 15 feet long, and are 1/3 the length of the whale's body (or so we were told). Near Puerto Vallarta, Jalisco, Mexico. 5 March 2009.

Finally! I've got a minute to post some of the whale photos from Mexico. I'll post one a day for the next week or so, so check back! Near Puerto Vallarta, Jalisco, Mexico. 5 March 2009.

Ooops. I wasn't intending such a long break there between the 'tease' of asking you what the photos were about and then posting the answer. What can I say? Life is busy. So yes, they are humpback whales, cavorting about Bandera Bay. This photo was taken a millisecond or two before the previous post. There are lots more! Near Puerto Vallarta, Jalisco, Mexico. 5 March 2009.

While the fresh snow a couple of weeks ago was lovely to look at, most of us in these parts are tired of it. So escape we must! Any guesses where this might be, or WHAT it might be? 5 March 2009.
