Totoong may Maputing Balyena

I was browsing at the FP website and came upon a newsbit: "A white whale has been spotted off the coast of Australia." As expected, Moby Dick comes to mind but this one is a humpback whale. Turns out that there's is actually a white whale in Australia named by Aborigines, "Migaloo" - meaning "white fella".

This newsbit was about a "new" white whale, probably the offspring of Migaloo the famous white whale of OZ. More Migaloo stuff poured out of Google, the photos and videos are amazing and so is a recording of this famous whale's singing!

Tomorrow at the supermarket, I will pass by the freezers carrying vacuum-sealed whale bacon.
