Rest day for whales

It seemed to be rest day for the Humpback whales in Moreton Bay, as a mother and calf were spotted staying close to each other and logging. Logging is how whales and dolphins sleep, they switch off half their brain to rest, while the other half is active to remember to surface for air. A total of 2 whales were spotted for the day.
