Beluga Family



I am a member of the Vancouver Aquarium and was recruited as a volunteer Beluga Observer to observe and research Aurora's pregnancy and birth of her calf (2 days ago). Here is a photo I took the day after the new baby beluga girl was born. This is a photo of 4 generations of the Beluga Family (from top; the Baby, Tiqa, Aurora, and Qila). Today is also Tiqa's 1st Birthday! Perhaps you will see a beluga inspired piece in the near future...

You can see a live web cam of the Belugas and a video of the birth at http://www.vanaqua.org/belugacam/
