Whale song from 2008.

This was recorded last year on our vessel DevOcean, the single males are the only ones that sing, though the females can vocalize.

The singing could be heard through the hull of the boat, and was one of the clearest recordings achieved last season.

It was thought until recently that Humpback whales, Megaptera novaeangliae were the only species that formed vocal sounds into a pattern or song. Recently through work in the Arctic areas, it has been discovered that the Bowhead Whale, Balaena mysticetus also creates a "song".
