“Breached”. This humpback whale breached several times perhaps in hopes of communicating the oncoming threat of transient Killer Whales who have been known to kill humpback calfs and were later spotted traveling towards this particular humpback and her calf (not in view). Photo location: Tolmie Chanel, Great Bear Rainforest, British Columbia, Canada. (Photo and caption by Cael Cook/National Geographic Photo Contest)
