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.
