Amazing drone footage of whale family 'playing' together at the surface
- 7 years ago
Beautiful aerial footage of a family of three whales playing together at the surface off the coast of New South Wales, Australia.
The video, filmed on November 17, shows the family breaching and barrel rolling as if they're showing off.
The filmer later wrote online: "The pilot saw the whales breaching the water from shore and sent the drone out to get a closer look and turned out that there were three of them all in line and having a ball of a time.
"The pilot explained that he thought the whales were a family consisting of a mother, father and child, the father being the largest and then mother then the child being the smallest in size."
"The pilot said he has never seen whales this energetic and never three of them as close as these three were to each other," he continued.
