Great news that a blue whale has been spotted off the coast of Cornwall, the first ever seen in UK waters.
I was excited enough to see a whale shark last week on the way to a dive site, but a blue whale......Hopefully it's an indication that the blue whale population is indeed recovering :-)
Looking at the map though, the area it was spotted in looks more like the Atlantic. So how far do "UK Waters" extend then? I might be just being pedantic but 250 miles from the UK coast doesn't really feel like "UK waters".....
