I’m trying to reach kyla since a long time. I discovered she’s part of this whale observation. Could you please give me he e-mail adress.

Thanks

Best though

I don’t know much about the whales in your current neck of the woods, but I do know that colder water tends to be more nutrient rich and nutrient rich water tends to have krill which then bring in the whales. So the warm water (and less nutrients, etc.) are likely the reason the big whales aren’t present there. Whale sharks feed on small fish and not krill, which is likely why you are seeing them and the other larger critters.

Enjoy Thailand and the wildlife you do get to see!

I have yet to see any larger sea creatures here… thoouhghthere are reports of whale SHARKS, dolphins, and other sharks, turles… the waters here seem sadly quiet of the big guys…
Maybe there’s no krill here!?

Thanks for your kind words on the posts. I am glad you have found them both informative and inspiring!

Just a hello from your home town. We have been reading your post both us learning much more than we have ever known about the variety of krill and the pictures of the whales at play are simple breath taking. Keep up the great work and cant wait to read the next posting.
