Photo: Orca Killer Whale Tail Fluke Underside
A show of excitement after a sea lion kill, a transient killer whale, aka Orca, lifts its tail up and splashes the surface of the water while swimming on its back and showing off the underside of the tail fluke.
A transient killer whale performs a series of tail slaps on the surface of the water off the coast off Malcolm Island in British Columbia, Canada. This playful display of a orca whale showing the underside of its tail fluke was observed after the orcas had killed a sea lion.
