Krill

Smallest first - the krill that feed all the animals and birds we saw. These were pulled out of the motor cooling water filter.

Whales

A pod of six humpbacked whales paid Europa a close visit. One pair was feeding right beside our hull, using the "bubble netting" method.

This is a Minke whale, one of two that were swimming close to the ship

Icebergs

We passed thousands of icebergs of all sizes. The one in the foreground shows its origin in a glacier, with the bands of moraine material (ground rocks).

More Icebergs.
