Humpback Whales celebrate joyously moments before a traditional Hawaiian blessing!

Aww, thats cute. :) Its amazing what joy whales can bring to us. Some of the slapping is actually called "Peduncle throwing" Which is where they fling the back half of the body from the peduncle(hump on their back) to the fluke up in the air.

Awesome... And more proof of the irrefutable connection between our thoughts and whales, dolphins, wildlife, etc. One more reason to protect these precious angels of the Earth and Sea.

Wow! I was there on the Kona coast that day - just a few miles from this ceremony and we saw whales going by in that direction!
