Here in Hawaii we're about to enter the season with the best underwater 'mood music' imaginable -- the humpback whales. Every year around this time, hundreds and hundreds of humpbacks arrive on their annual migration from Alaska to winter in our waters. We can hear them singing on almost every dive here from mid-Autumn until late Spring.
The first whale of the season was sighted off the island of Lana'i this past weekend. They're ba-ack...
