Right whale:

Date/time (local)OccurrenceLatitudeLongitudeNotes
12/30/19 04:20:57Possibly detected43.9107-68.2682These upcalls could very easily be humpback or right. Bout in P5 is more likely humpback, but NARW could also make these, plus lone upcall P6 could also be NARW. Short call before upcall bout in P5 and possible MF ds of same amplitude in P6 could signify humpback. Keeping both species as possibly detected
