I made this instrumental based on a 4 minute snippet of whale calls. I love the way it turned out, and hope you will too 🙂

This friend did this for more than an hour!
Hi everyone, I have been trying to find a current and working whale spotting app that works with a Pixel 7. I used to have a few old apps a few years ago and none of them are around or working anymore.
I would really like to be able to check where whales have been spotted lately and go film them with live or recently updated info.
If anyone can point me to their favourite app, that would be much appreciated. Thank you.
I spotted this guy 6 miles off the coast of Miami. I’ve never seen a whale out here. Any idea what kind it is?
I couldn’t believe my eyes when I saw the video, and he was kind enough to let me post it. What a playful little calf!
