Moby Dick

Sometimes you can be amazed, but not at certain times like this.








When I watch this video it makes me feel....
Wonderful! and amazed!

When we went to New Zealand we went on a excursion to watch Sperm Whales! But it wasn't as amazing as that.

This is a Sperm Whale [ Moby Dick ]. A huge whale with teeth! Usually whales have Baleen. Baleen is a filter-feeder system inside the mouths of baleen whales.





Photo displaying dozens of baleen plates. The plates face each other, and are evenly spaced at approximately 0.25 inches (1 cm) intervals. The plates are attached to the jaw at the top, and have hairs at the bottom end.
