Humpback Whale

Humpback Whale "Whup" Call

This is a recording of a singing male humpback whale, recorded early in the Conscious Breath Adventures 2010 Silver Bank humpback whale season. It is the longest uninterrupted recording made this season, almost 16 minutes in length. It was recorded using an Aquarian Audio hydrophone hooked into a Zoom H4n digital recorder from a distance of 100-300 yards from the singing whale, as the boat slowly drifted away.

This track was recorded on the Silver Bank, Dominican Republic, during the Conscious Breath Adventures 2012 humpback whale season. Every season some 3,000-5,000 whales gather to court, mate and give birth, offering an excellent opportunity to see and here them. Conscious Breath Adventures holds a limited permit allowing us to take guests to swim with the whales, allowing us to literally immerse ourselves in the song. It is a bone-shaking experience. To get the best effect, play this over your home stereo system at high volume!

Humpback Whale Song

A short recording of a chorus of singing humpback whales on the Silver Bank, Dominican Republic. There were so many whale songs overlapping that it was impossible to make a good estimated count. Learn more about the humpback whales of the Silver Bank at www.ConsciousBreathAdventures.com
