Migaloo is an albino humpback whale,  usually sighted along the Australian coast,  and occasionally in New Zealand waters.  Migaloo was named by the Hervey Bay local aboriginal collective,  and it means “white fella”.  While several Humpback Whales have been spotted with almost 90% white pigment coverage,  Migaloo is the only documented albino.

This is fucking terrifying

big nope 

I would’ve been so shook

Awww whale.

Whale I didn’t see that coming

it would’ve scared the fuck out of me holy shit that’s big

So for anybody who doesn’t know, that ring of bubbles you see coming up before the humpback does is a “net” that the whale creates by swimming in a circle and blowing the bubbles from its blowhole. The bubble net disorients the krill/small fish/whatever and corrals them into one spot so that the whale can lunge up and feed as you see it doing. It’s most often done cooperatively in groups, and a whole bunch of whales will lunge up at once.

In other news that is one deep harbor, holy shit.

Actually it doesn’t even have to be that deep! Humpbacks like shallow water and often swim close to shore to avoid predation by orca pods  in pursuit but its still really impressive that its fishing so close to all those boats and under the dock. That graceful giant doesn’t even touch them! All the same if I did see that huge mouth it would get my heart racing too 😀 Its daunting feeling small.

Sadly, life has been very busy for me of late, so I had no time at all to draw much. I’ve only managed a few doodles with digital watercolors between work, on the rare occasions when I was re-watching TF Prime.

A G1-Prowl sneaked into the mix as well. He’s an absolute favorite of mine (especially the IDW Machiavellian version XD).
