In this remarkable piece of filming, a True’s Beaked Whale mother and calf can be seen swimming off the coast of São Miguel island in the Azores. This species is one of the most rarely sighted and video footage of individuals from around the world is next to none. This spectacular HD aerial footage therefore could be the world’s first of its kind, making it extremely valuable in aid of researching this species non-invasively and studying the behaviours on show.
