We went to Digby Neck and long Island today. A hike to Balancing Rock trail first. This was a walk in the woods down to the ocean on a long staircase. There is of course Balancing Rock and a lot of other ancient volcanic rock structures.
Then off to whale watching. It was early in the season so we went pretty far out toward the mouth of the bay. Just when we thought there would be no whale sightings we saw a hump back whale. It stayed fairly close in the area and we saw it from many different angles. Pictures don't do it justice as it popped up in different places and different sides of the boat. They eat 3-4 thousand pounds of fish a day! Very interesting to see and a big tour of the bay on the boat. We also saw a number of sea birds and a seal on the way back.
