After spending years documenting whales from afar, his dream of meeting the gentle giants finally came true.
Whistles and pulsed calls are used during social activities.
Pulsed calls are more frequent and sound like squeaks, screams, and squawks to the human ear.
The man is visibly emotional as he gets to interact with the whale once more and say goodbye.
Ernster, an experienced whale videographer, captured his encounter with a longer video he uploaded toYouTube.
Today, they show a unique curiosity towards the very beings that once threatened their existence.
He adds that a lot of care goes into these encounters.
Ernster also appreciated the opportunity to share this love for whales with others.
Im fortunate to get to spend my days surrounded by wildlife of all sorts.
Its a privilege I will never ever take for granted.
It makes me more and more thankful for this little blue ball everyday.
