Two whales delight in the Sounds

Jennifer Eder Reporter from Marlborough Express

A Blenheim family has been thrilled to spot two whales frolicking in Kura Te Au/Tory Channel. Did you know you can report sightings of whales on the DOC website, or by calling 0800 DOCHOT (0800 362 468)? The reports help with research and conservation efforts. Volunteers are also needed for The Great Kaikōura Whale Count 2022, which runs until July 3.
