Sometimes, Nature puts on a show that leaves us awestruck. The first
pictures of one of the world’s rarest sea creatures, Migaloo the white humpback
whale, have been taken of the magnificent animal beginning his yearly
migration north along Australia’s eastern seaboard.
Migaloo, Australia’s own Moby Dick.
Tourists frequently take boats out to catch
a glimpse this time of year.
And Migaloo is usually happy to show
off for his fans.
Migaloo has become somewhat of a celebrity
on the east coast of New South Wales.
The much-loved whale has returned
every year since first sighting in 1991.
Migaloo is protected by Federal Law which
prevents him being approached.
