Blue Whale in Murky Water | Balaenoptera musculus brevicauda | Sri Lanka

Very close pass with a pygmy blue whale (Balaenoptera musculus brevicauda) in murky water. Note the patches of white pigmentation on the right nostril and left dorsal area. These make this whale easy to recognize, even from above water.
