I’ve always thought that whales are some of the most amazing creatures on our planet. That opinion is only reinforced by the video clip below which features a playful gray whale that approaches close enough to a boat to let its inhabitants touch the large mammal. The footage gives us some great shots both above and below the water and was shot recently by 13-year old Eric Lindblad while on an aquatic adventure to Magdalena Bay.
It looks magical there.
