Heads and tails of Southern right whales

Whales are extremely sociable creatures. Right whales in particular are often seen in a variety of social displays when they are on their winter breeding grounds. They will come right into the shallows where they roll around at the surface, in pairs or even large gatherings. During my winter stay in South Africa I got to see a lot of these social interactions between Southern right whales. The result is many photos of the heads and tails of these social whales:
