This very small calf was on its own, breaching and tail slapping about 3kms from Sugarloaf Rock.

Small Humpback calf breaching and tail slapping 3km from Sugarloaf Rocks. — Although the images are poor quality, it is clearly a small humpback calf.

There are a lot of things we don’t know about humpbacks. Why is a calf with no mother breaching and tail slapping off Sugarloaf Rocks? Why isn’t it up north with its mother? Where is its mother? Why is it breaching and tail slapping?
