Wednesday 23rd November 2011…..WOW!!!

The photo was taken at the entrance to Katlian Bay at the end of the road in Sitka ,

Alaska ... The whale is coming up to scoop up a mouthful of herring.........

(the small fish seen at the surface around the kayak). The kayaker is a local Sitka Dentist.

He apparently didnt sustain any injuries from the terrifying experience. The whale was just

around the corner from the ferry terminal, and all the kayaker could think at that moment

in time was: "Paddle Man - really fast!"

Thanks to my friend Ray for the photo!!!!!!!!

I am told that this photo is a fake This can be verified on the WEB but I no longer recall the specific site name. It will be interesting to see of someone else can provide the site.

Cheers.
