Photo: Orca Tail Lopping Sunset
A transient Orca whale shows its excitement after a sunset meal by tail lopping just off shore from Malcolm Island.
An orca displays fairly typical behaviour of excitement and playfulness by tail lopping. This orca had just finished a meal and started tail slapping or tail lopping in the beautiful glow of sunset.
Transient killer whales (orca, Orcinus orca, T30's & T137's) after killing a sea lion off Malcolm Island near Donegal Head, British Columbia, Canada.
