Here a a few storm photos 

a quick 4 mins of birds fishing in the ocean I think the birds are Gannets.

About Gannets 

Gannets can dive from a height of 100 feet, achieving speeds of 160 MPH as they strike the water, enabling them to catch fish much deeper than most airborne birds. The gannet's supposed capacity for eating large quantities of fish has led to "gannet" becoming a description of somebody with a voracious appetite.

The sunrise was brief this morning just colored right at the horizon then turn gray lasted maybe about four minutes. Just a reminder the boardwalk in the ocean front parking in Belmar is closed and all parking is closed in Springlake you cannot park anywhere in Spring Lake you’re looking to walk along the beach right.

I miss the old boardwalk, do you remember it? I love the texture of the wood.

Sunday morning waves January 2020 Just a beautiful morning so I put the drone up got some beautiful photos wow is it gorgeous here today 

So I was photographing fishing boats at sunrise there was a lot of birds in the area a few striper fishing boats were out early beautiful morning sunlight I was really just photographing the boats in the sunrise. They will all of us sudden blows I see it in my 100 to 400 zoom lens and I say this is the shot of waited years for and it’s right in front of the house. A humpback whale is right in front of the house at sunrise and the orange glow with the morning light.

I was just photographing the boats going across the sunrise it was rising in the sky then I noticed the blow of a humpback whale right in front of the house right at sunrise I was amazed I was able to capture a couple of these images he didn’t lunch feed her come spiraling out of the ocean I guess that will be saved for a future date because of that it happened I’m not sure what I would ever need to photograph when it came through whale 

I was absolutely thrilled that I was home and able to see it and had my camera ready all the settings correct and I had already been photographing so I didn’t have to go and scramble and find equipment that was packed away in the camera bag in it in the cabinet. Camera gear for this shot. Canon 5D Mark four really right stuff tripod 100 to 400 canon 2.8 lens. And a whole Lotta luck. Bill McKim

The Crips were amazing we had 25 trips and saw a Whales on 23 of those trips the two trips we can see whales on those people got certificates to come out with us on another trip for free so they would see whales also because I want everybody to see the whales. 

Well watching along to Jersey shore there’s an amazing experience it’s unique it’s new it’s something that your parents and grandparents most likely never did and less I’ve gone with us the last two years because it didn’t exist before hand.

Join us we’re watching in Monmouth and Ocean counties go to our website reserve your tickets and you will have we can’t wait to experience like no other without having to go to Alaska to go see whales or Cape Cod or 2 1/2 hour ride down to Cape May we see more wells that even the trip to the right of Maine and Massachusetts as far as our percentage is unbeatable 92% is unbelievable how do we complex 92% because we don’t go in bad weather and we don’t go when the conditions are favorable toward whale watching.
