Subject: Sickle
Just a quick note to let you know that our whale watch boat encounted
Sickle and her calf 12 miles east off Kennebunkport, Me. on Sunday, Aug
4 and disentagled her from 300 feet of gill net rope.
She was so amazing! When our captain shut down the boat, she and her
calf came over to the port side and lay alongside patiently while our
crew pulled length after length of line wrapped around her left pectoral
fin. After freeing her, she and her calf remained with our boat for
over and hour and a half.....one wise old lady, she!
