Whale sightings in Sydney, 2011 midseason update

Most of humpback whales already migrated North for breeding and now will be a little bit quit period till spring (in Southern hemisphere). According to NSW National Parks and Wildlife Service whale numbers are up about 10% and almost 1000 whales were seen passing Sydney. It is highest whale count since Australia banned commercial whaling in the 1960s.� Here is chart of whales seen on whale watching tours in Sydney during last three months: During peak migration in June numbers looks much better then it was last year. Except one week, but it is not because was no whales. The sea was a little bit rough and some whale watching tours were canceled because of weather. I think everybody is expecting perfect whale watching season in October/November. Above whale sightings are taken from this page www.whalewatchingsydney.net/whale-sightings.
