Farewell to The Lost Whales

Finally, it appears that the mother and calf humpback whales that made a wrong turn and went into the Sacramento River on May 13Th, today are back in the Pacific Ocean.
Last night they were spotted close to the Golden Gate Bridge and hope was up for the scientists and government officials trying to help them find their way back to the ocean.
I have tried to get information to see if anybody has photographed the underside of the tail of the mother but I guess no one has.
A dear friend sent a photo of what appears to be the calf's tail though...
In any case, farewell to them and I hope the make it to their feeding grounds soon.
