The bubbles of a challenging male before he surfaces.
We came across three males and a female who had begun a loose rowdy or competition group. Before long they were joined by another 8 males and the action really began to heat up. Rowdy groups occur with females that are in season, the males will challenge each other to become the most dominant and therefore the successor.

The surfacing blow.
The action yesterday was off the scale with the whales using the boats to confuse other males on their plan of attack, breaches and lots of chasing, tubercules began to get bloody towards the end, and it looked like the fight was going to continue for some time.
