    In Episode 6 of my Ultimate Whales Expedition, I'm in search of Blue Whales and encounter a variety of species along the way. Once we find a blue whale, I witness something I've never seen before.

    In this series, I'll travel from LA to Hawaii, to Baja California, central California, and the Sea of Cortez in search of the oceans largest creatures. While whales are the focus, my ultimate goal is find whales and sharks coexisting. A tall order but one that is likely given the wonders of sea.

    There are not enough positive adjectives in the English language to describe how seeing these creatures make me feel, so goodness knows what it must've been like for you, Carlos.
    There's something so exhilarating when out on the sea, with it's beautiful and changing colours, the different smells and the feeling of the wind and water on one's face and arms. And then,
    to suddenly interacting with such extraordinary creatures, it just astounds me that people forget about all that and continue on their polluting and destructive ways. It is clear to me that we are
    all interconnected. We cannot survive if the sea does not thrive. Thanks so much for sharing these moments with us.

    Got a drone for my birthday last week. All because I want to film sharks off San Diego beaches. Mostly Tamarack and Carlsbad beach . It's all I've talked about since finding your channel. You are an amazing photographer. Beautiful footage! I just want to see them for myself. I'm excited to try it out next week. We're 20-30 minutes from the beach, and I love ocean life. Thanks for the beauty you share! Thanks for inspiring us to see our surroundings closer.

    I just love watching this channel grow and evolve into something so beneficial to the world of sharks and whales! If there's ever an event in MA I want to be there! Thank you! (edit) My biggest question about whales is - Seeing as how whale vocalizations are of such high decibels that they can kill a human, why aren't there stories of humans being injured when diving with them? Do they not vocalize near humans? Do they know not to? Is it just a matter of chance?

    It'd remarkable to think that the big blues can consume over _4 tons of krill_ per day. Since I was a child, when I heard statistics like this, I would ask my folks, 'but won't we run out of krill if they eat that much every _day?_ Thank you again Carlos, for bringing us along on your grand tours!

    Excellent video. As a whale enthusiast and blue whale fan I've quite often wondered exactly how BLUE these guys get. Most 💙's have a deep shade of blue on their underbelly and a slightly lighter shade near the fin. Must have been something to watch one feed and, yes, these giants eat tiny krill to live. We humans find ourselves at the bottom 1/3 of life in the sea when compared with whales the size of 18-wheelers!

    One commenter noted about Japan resuming it’s whaling practices. I know the fishing industry is a very strong one over there, but the government needs to grow a pair…I would like to see a permanent whaling ban in all waters everywhere, of course enforcing it is a whole other problem.

    Have you looked up Australia’s own Migaloo yet? He’s a white whale.
    The Blue Whale at the end there was fascinating to watch. I appreciated the commentary about it feeding and the krill on top of the water.
    It was another superb video from you that had me filled with joy and love for all of them ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

I don't mean to offend, but those numbers have got be mind blowing.

    It was nice to see this compilation of videos. I’ve seen each one before but it was nice to see them again with the explanation of the activity. Also, I grew up on the east coast of Florida and I know from the seaweed that was in those waters that there was always small shrimp, crabs and fish in and under the seaweed patch. I wonder if in some of the seaweed or kelp pieces there are also small critters that the sharks can get a tiny snack from grabbing the material. Just a thought.
