Description

I am hoping for some expert confirmation here, but we are pretty sure this must have been beluga. We were on the coast near Bjørndalen, when we spotted two whales going northeast along the coast (left to right in the photo). We saw the blow first - it was sort of two-directional as I think you can see in spite of the poor photos. Then the back would surface, and far back sort of a knobbly litte dorsal fin, which is sadly not visible in the photos - but it is just at the surface in the middle photo. The round head, the shape of the blow and the shape of the fin seems to fit with beluga, which is supposed to be the most common what in the area at the moment anyway. It was directly against the light, so it is only a silhouette. Sorry for the photo quality!
