Breaching in synchrony

Today we saw a giant splash in the distance…there’s only one thing that makes such a big splash… a breaching whale! As we approached, we saw that it was a calf breaching over and over again. I had my camera ready and suddenly the mom breached at the exact same time as the calf! I have never seen them breach together before, and I was lucky to get a shot. They both continued to breach, but never again at the same time. It was a lovely moment!
