Last evening I received permission from Joy Hampp and Jim Hain to post a photo of Arpeggio and her calf.
It is the property of Jim Hain and The Marineland Right Whale Project and was taken by Joy at Beverly Beach, FL on December 10th. They estimate the baby was at least 6 days old in the photo.
I was so excited when I got that email! I wish I had the overhead shot of mother and baby that I saw on my visit to The Marineland Right Whale Project office at the beginning of the month.
The photo that is available is just as impressive though, and one day I hope to have a camera that will have a lens to take a photo like the one you can see if you go to my Central Florida Thru My Eyes Blog.

How exciting for you, Lysa.
That is so awesome Lysa...I hope to someday see something like that in real life.
Thanks for the update, Lysa! I would SO love to see something like that 'up close and personal'. Thanks for sharing!
Missy, I will be more excited if I get to see them in person :)
Monika, Come down and visit! I had a comment from a visitor on both blogs who saw some whales in Dec while on vacation. You never know what you'll see!
Lysa, That shot is amazing, I can't believe the baby is only 6 days old! Thank you for sharing, these are amazing and beautiful creatures.
Going to check it out right now =)
Carol, Ya know, you could come visit durning whale season and maybe you'll get that chance :)
Carole, Isn't a beautiful photo? Those babies are big, hopefully I'll get a overhead shot to publish and you'll get a better visual :)
Lisa. I'm waiting for you to sight one or two yourself! There is a yearling in our area as well!
Hi Lysa...great shot!
I'm going to have to dig out an old album of mine that has pictures of a whale watch we went on!
It was incredible....I will scan and post them.
Joan, Joy did a great job didn't she?? I would love to get a shot like that!! Please let me know when you post those shots!
