Description Trua, Makaio, Malia, Nalani ...

EDIT:

I looked at the pictures that I took before and after this one.
That is Makaio above Trua, not Malia, as I originally posted ... sorry.

amazing how huge Makaio looks next to his much older siblings! It appears as if he grew very fast. Lovely shot of them!

It was really kind of lucky.
I got Malia's attention (for some odd reason) for the first time in many visits ... I was jumping up and down for Trua.
Malia then played chase and Trua followed along (of course).
Then Malia left.

About 15 minutes later, Malia came in from the far gate and swam slowly toward my window with Makaio just off her left shoulder and Nalani back to Malia's left, following.
Trua was still at the window, of course.

As Malia and Makaio got half way to the window, I started to jump up and down again.
Sure enough, Malia came right over ... with Makaio right next to her, and Nalani trailing just a little.
Then, they were all at the window watching me jump up and down (whales and dolphins love humans acting goofy ) .

My goal was to hold Makaio's attention, so I went to the old stand-by ... hide-and-seek behind the wall.
Malia, Makaio, and Nalani ALL played ! (whales also love hide-and-seek).

Makaio was hanging close to Malia, so then I played a little chase with Malia (she seems to like this game the best); a slow half-run from the far right window to the far left.
I really didn't pay attention to Nalani or Trua.
When I got to the far left window, I hid behind the wall ... then popped out a couple of times ... then hid again.

When I finally came out for a full view, THIS scene is what I saw !!!

Lucky ! But I take luck

Thanks again !

It's very hard...

I had my hands constantly on the glass until I got the camera out.

They ARE right there!
