Thanks all.

You're right, there is a preserved one (or what is left of it) in the main museum in Wellington, although not the biggest apparently, I wouldn't like to argue with it. Our whale guides were saying that great white sharks have been found in sperm whale stomachs!

Re: Catch of the day...

I'm in NZ at the moment and achieved a long time ambition of getting up close to a whale. This is my "catch of the day/life" a sperm whale, apparently the largest toothed predator on the planet:-

Re: From your garden/backyard

Birma

As you know from Flickr I think that last shot of the field of poppies is excellent but I am also impressed with the range of shots you've got here.
