Blue Whales Off Palos Verdes Coast

There is something magical about these huge, gentle creatures – the blue whales.  Palos Verdes homes owners are so lucky to have them feeding off our coast.  Sometimes, you can see them with binoculars or even just the naked eye.  However, the blue whales were featured in a recent LA Times article explaining that there are so many blue whales now feeding off our coast that they are in danger of being hit by a ship as the whales are feeding in the shipping lanes going into Los Angeles and Long Beach Harbors (click here to read article).

There is a terrific photo by Allen J. Schaben, Los Angeles Times, (in above linked article) showing a blue whale with Palos Verdes Peninsula in the background.  Click here to read more about the blue whales off the Palos Verdes coast....

Hi Elaine,

Thanks for sharing.

Palos Verdes Coast seems like a nice community to sit and whale watch.

Have a wonderful week!

One of the great creatures of the ocean, as well as a source of motivation for us who are on dry land... g
