JERRY IS BACK!
JERRY IS BACK! We had a great day out on the American Princess Cruises Whale and Dolphin Watch with Gotham Whale, it was incredible. Conditions were very good: scattered clouds, warm weather, a slight wind chop with no ocean swell. We saw big schools of Cownose Rays, frisky dolphins, turtles, and 5 humpback whales. Both humpbacks and dolphins put on a great show; both were doing breaches and jumps and the whales were doing some nice lunge feedings. We found out that one of these 5 whales was the most famous of all NYC whales, NYC0011, aka JERRY! Jerry is the whale that leaped/spy hopped up in line with the Empire State Building. Something interesting happened when we were just about to dock, we saw a blow under the Marine Parkway Bridge! WHAT? A Humpback in Jamaica Bay! WOW!! What a day!!!
