A contrast in maturity: Sensitive Caitlin, 6 yo, hoped the whale could be buried so she could come back and visit, versus thrill-seeking tourists splashing around with orcas. I confess to fantasies of orcas feasting on humans. Sorry.
Thanks for sharing. That thing about dolphins' whistles... it's blowing my mind. I just love what it says about our relationship with the natural world. Just when you think you're starting to understand something you look a bit closer and discover there's layers upon layers upon layers.

I imagine the orcas fantasize about it too - at their peril if they act on it, I'm sure!
