Whale Watching, Sydney Australia
Australia marked the start of its whale-watching season Wednesday June 1, 2011 with predictions that some 4,000 of the giant animals will be spotted as they make their way along the coast during winter.
Humpback and southern right whales migrate along Australia's east coast each year, passing Sydney as they head north away from Antarctica for the coldest months of June and July. They return south between September to November.
