Humpback Whale At Heceta Head Lighthouse Florence Oregon


















On the way back from Florence Oregon we stopped at this picturesque and famous lighthouse on the Oregon coast. It is a beautiful sight with the vast pacific ocean at it's feet. The area attracts plenty of sea lions and in this case a Humpback Whale. This was a sight to see and as you can imagine these photos do not do it justice. A spectacular  sight! The whale would surface for breath and then go under again for two to three minutes and then come up again. There was great excitement every time it came back up and sprayed. Too bad I only had my small digital camera with me. This was a great trip and more on it anon.
