Beluga

Date : Monday September 10, 2007
Location : Baie Saint Catherine, Ponte Noir, Sagueney fjord, Quebec, Canada
Position : 48 07'24"N 069 42'59"W
Species : Beluga(Delphinapterus leucas)
Total number seen : 30-50

Remarks
In the early morning we took the ferry to Baie Saint Catherine and went to the lookout Ponte Noir. Yesteray evening we saw beluga's coming out of the fjord, but they where on the other side of the fjord. When the came in the Saint Lawrence River, they swim downstream, so we didn't get a change to see them properly.
But this morning from Ponte Noir we had a wonderful view of single beluga's swimming in to the fjord and sometimes they swim in small groups of 3 or 4 individuals.
