Photo: Antartica New Zealand Antarctica New Zealand science tech Jamie McGaw said he counted about 12 whales in total - and it looked like they were having a ball. They made their way across the water right in front of the station, only a few kilometres offshore. They were tail-slapping and breaching, with the boom of their bodies hitting the water echoing around Pram Point. We weren t sure exactly what type of whale they were, so the base was buzzing with discussion following the sighting, he says. Images taken by the team are considered of scientific importance as sightings in the Antarctic are so rare, with the last five years ago.
