The offshore season has been extended one week… Awesome!<\/p>\n

On October 30, ours was the only boat out at sea. It’s a tranquil river, but what activity there has been off Tadoussac! We cross paths with over ten minke whales, in addition to spotting a fin whale. The animals are quite dynamic, passing near the surface to feed. The reason: schools of krill!<\/p>\n

Above these marine mammals, flocks of kittiwakes as well as Bonaparte’s, great black-backed, herring, and ring-billed gulls are also participating in the feast.” I conclude that there is krill in the area, since I have taken several photos of gulls capturing these prey at the surface.<\/p>\n

Not far away is a large herd of gray seals \u2013 over 100 individuals!<\/p>\n

I take numerous pictures of minke whales, many of whose dorsal fins have noticeable notches or distinctive shapes.<\/p>\n

Also worth noting is the strong presence of long-tailed ducks being seen off the Tadoussac dunes. They are a little more with each passing day. Soon there will be thousands of them wintering in the area.<\/p>\n

Here are the photos of the day:<\/p>\n
