Whales come home to San Pedro
Cabrillo Marine Aquarium in San Pedro and the American Cetacean Society are throwing a welcome home bash for some of California's largest visitors - the Pacific gray whales.
The Whale Fiesta is Sunday. Click here for details.
The Whale Fiesta marks the return of the migratory mammals to the coast of Southern California. The event mixes educational talks by bird, whale and other marine experts with hands-on activities such as the making of a life-sized sculpture of a Cuvier's beaked whale and a duct tape whale contest.
About the Bloggers
Daily Breeze reporter Donna Littlejohn has shared her homes with a succession of wonderful, funny, and occasionally difficult canines -- Muffin, Fritz, Ellie, Mercy, Pilgrim and now Cowboy, an Australian shepherd-border collie, and Tess, a border collie. From strong-willed terriers to weirdly obsessed Australian shepherds, they've invaded her world with boundless energy, wet noses, muddy paws and soggy tennis balls. But they've really brought so much more than that -- like laughter and joy, some unexpected life lessons, and more than a few tears along the way.
