Humpback Tail

The tail of a humpback whale disappearing into the calm waters near Port McNeill in British Columbia, Canada.

Humpback Tail: Scientific Name:
Megaptera novaeangliae

share to Facebook A humpback whale in Johnstone Strait dives peacefully into calm waters. On this day off Northern Vancouver Island in British Columbia, an opportune time arose for a great photo of this tail of a humpback.

Every humpback can be identified by the white markings on the underside of its tail. These markings are all personalized just like our own set of fingerprints.

Out on the ocean on a sunny, calm day the slap of a humpback's tail can echo loudly off the waters' surface. You can never compare the awesome sound from the slap of a humpback's tail to the roar of traffic.

If you are ever on a whale watching trip around the Northern tip of Vancouver Island, you may blessed with the sight of a humpback whale slapping its' tail fluke on the surface of the water.
