Today we celebrate the whales of the world!

Especially our North Atlantic Right Whales, who are born in the warm waters off Amelia Island.

Pilgrim’s 2023 Calf

Two weeks ago we were enthralled by the joyous romping of “Pilgrim”’s calf, as filmed by Joel Cohen of Blue World Research Institute. Click here to view the video!

Image of Pilgrim’s calf rolling on her back and clapping her flippers… look for it toward the end of the video!  It will bring you joy everytime you watch it!

Then, 10 days later, this beautiful girl died as a result of a vessel strike.
