Watching
whales
' ‘ W hatever the reason fo r hug­
ging the coastline, the grays offer a
splendid o p p o rtu n ity fo r coastal
sightseers," M ate says.
In the last few years, w hale
watching charterboat trips have be­
come popular, giving people a close­
up view o f these g iant m am m als
which reach 45 feet in length and
weigh as much as 45 tons.
For the shorebound viewers, high
coastal headlands ju ttin g in to the
ocean o ffer the best vantage point.
Binoculars or spotting scopes are re­
commended.
The telltale blow , a spout o f va­
por rising as high as 12 feet, is the
first sign to alert the whale watcher.
Once the geyser-like cloud appears,
keep watching in the same area for
more. M ate advises. The best time
to watch for whales is in the early
morning when the sea is calm.
The gray whale gets its name from
its b lo tch y p attern o f c o lo ra ito n ,
which is caused by barnacles grow ­
ing in the skin and by scar tissue
where barnacles have been.
T w o O S U Extension publications
explain more about whales. Single
copies o f " G ra y W h a le s.” SG 52,
and " W a tc h in g W h a le s ," SG 53,
are available w ithout charge from
the Bulletin M ailin g Service, O S U ,
Corvallis 97331.
People who miss the southern m i­
g ratio n o f gray whales w ill have
another chance to see them during
the northern migration beginning in
late February and lasting until June.
From M arch 21 26. the O SU Ex­
tension Sea Grant M arine Advisory
Program will conduct whale watch­
ing activities at the O SU M arine Sci­
ence Center in N ew p o rt. M o re in

N E W P O R T — G ra y whales can
now be seen along the Oregon coast
on their annual 6,000 mile trek from
the Bering Se« o f f Alaska to Baja
California.
The Southward migration, which
involves thousands o f gray whales,
lasts from December to early Feb­
ru a ry , according to Bruce M a te ,
Oregon State University Extension
marine mammal specialist.
T h e whales are headed fo r la ­
goons o f f the coast o f Baja where
they w ill breed and give b irth to
young.
U n lik e most w hales, grays stay
near land during their m ig ra tio n ,
co m m on ly tra ve lin g ab o u t three
miles fro m shore. Some scientists
theorize that gray whales may not
be good navigators so they follow a
shallow-water route to avoid getting
lost.
