Credit © 📷 🖋✅ @pxlexplorer ORCAS are so intelligent. A pod played games with us today, so cheeky in intuitive they were. The pod was traveling along but really slowly and every few minutes would dive for a few then come up ever so slowly. We kept our position in front, very quiet and even turned off the engine….. then as we were ready eagerly ready, they came up and ….turned! U-turned! DOH! 🙄 They did this like 3-4 times, at the very last second they knew we were about to drop and they turned. All I could do was laugh and laugh. 😜They got us each time. Sucked us in for the perfect drop then BOOM! HAHAHAHA 😆 I bet all 12 of them were cackling, clicking and squeaking to themselves with laughter #fooledthoosereallybadswimmersagain With a separate pod I saw the fattest female orca I’ve ever seen. 😱💙Instinctively I would say she’s pregnant……. but the weight of the belly looks at the belly not near the peduncle. She was doing a bit of a duck dive at the time so maybe her belly fell forward a bit😬…… Let me know what you guys think? Is she pregnant or just full of herring? I haven’t seen a pregnant orca yet so #fingerscrossed she is. Here’s a couple of shots of her (she’s on the right). This trio were perfect in their fluidity and separation. I hope they’ll pass this on to the rest of the orcas. Orcas are highly intelligent but not great with separation when it comes to posing for photos LOL. I did send out a memo earlier and so far I think some have received it LOL. 🐋💙❄️ Cant wait for tomorrow…#whaletokens and an early start. #Orcasome #extraorcanary #orcasmic #itsawonderfulocean #whalesunderwater19 #wuw19 #humpbacks #orcas #killerwhales #WUWOrcas19 #whalesunderwater #WUWNorway #WUWNorway19 #wishingyouwerehere #darrenjew #jasminecarey https://www.instagram.com/p/B4vMCxqBY4q/?igshid=1dmo7ek89932f

Credit © 🎬 ✅ @pxlexplorer 🖋 Via @killer__whales_ Orcas are spontaneous. Much more so than humpbacks. Well, it certainly feels that way due to their smaller physique & ability to dolphin zip & zag around. They can turn on a dime, spin & u-turn in seconds. They have a different kind of cheek that reminds me of my niece (7yo) & nephew (4yo), where they’ll run, jump, burst out & or even sneak up on you, do something freakishly cheeky then run back away to their hidey hole or ‘safe place’. The thing is I can chase, grab and tickle my littles ones till they shout out ‘Aunty JJ is the greatest in the whole wide world’, something I can only visualise in my wildest dreams with an Orca! But you never know, depending on what the pod is doing, Orcas are certainly playful & enjoy cheeky side glances, a good snorkel laugh, a few squeaky clicks, belly rolls & taunting body wriggles. Needless to say, this was such a wonderful surprise moment, it actually gave me a BOO #lol I was wowed & transfixed on the mum & calf coming by then spinning around together as they disappeared off into the emerald green. I was thinking about how that was the most graceful exit stage left ever! Completely chuffed with what I was seeing I didn't even notice this cheeky fella swim right under me. I did feel water being pushed behind me so I did turn to look right but BOOM hello in my face from underneath, someone else wanted attention LOL. #BRILLANT really made my day. I was laughing & on #cloudnine #sograteful I’m currently thawing out in Dubai, spending time with my family is such a treat. Hopeful to get a few dives in & explore a bit more AND fingers crossed even have some time to look through the HD for more orca, humpback & aurora snaps! #downtime #orcawonderland #Orcasome #extraorcanary #orcasmic #itsawonderfulocean #whalesunderwater19 #wuw19 #humpbacks #orcas #killerwhales #WUWOrcas19 #whalesunderwater #WUWNorway #WUWNorway19 #wishingyouwerehere #darrenjew #jasminecarey" RepostBy @antithree.respectanimalrights: "Credit © @pxlexplorer https://www.instagram.com/p/B_qB5NOBmB_/?igshid=1kawce1byt9hn

Awesome post and caption ✒ by © 🎞 ✅ @pxlexplorer Her name is Aurora. She is the seductress of the arctic night. She is magical. She is jaw-dropping. She seduces you with her dance. She is the most spectacular sight for your eyes to ever behold. Words escape you and your left to only fumble #ooooos, #aaaaahhhhs, did you see that! it's a cinnamon scroll! it's a whale tail. The chimes, the chimes! #OHMYGOD #stunning. We were really lucky this year to have a few nights of magical auroras. On this particular night, we were on the @mv_togo on route to #orcawonderland. We abandoned our dinner for a 2 hour spectacle of Aurora. It's pure magic, here's a little bit of it. @whalesunderwater @darrenjew @pxlexplorer @alitakau @he.hikes @davidpickvancemusic #orcawonderland #Orcasome #extraorcanary #orcasmic #itsawonderfulocean #whalesunderwater19 #wuw19 #humpbacks #orcas #killerwhales #WUWOrcas19 #whalesunderwater #WUWNorway #WUWNorway19 #wishingyouwerehere #darrenjew #jasminecarey (at Norway) https://www.instagram.com/p/B51iUf0hdce/?igshid=orqbx5j07xyz
