Expired Trues Beaked Whale

On the last day of this blog and 2013, I went out to look at and photograph an expired Trues Beaked Whale that washed ashore on Easton's Beach in Newport. I conducted hundreds of whale watches in the 1990's and have spent many more hundreds and hundreds of days at sea, and I have never had such an opportunity to see a beaked whale of any species. (Although I do believe I saw one in the Indian Ocean 1984).  Sad that I would have to see one under this circumstance.   

It doesn't look like I'll be able to get photos out today. Standby...
