Summary The newborn gray whale calves spend their first months of life in the safety of Baja's San Ignacio Lagoon, suckling and learning swimming skills before starting the first leg of their incredible journey. Nigel is spellbound by the 'friendly whales', mothers and calves that literally beg for his attention, rolling like puppy-dogs as he strokes them from his boat. While at the lagoon, Nigel talks to the scientists studying the whales, and finds unexpected birds of prey nesting at the water's edge. As the whales start their journey north towards the border with the US, he takes a parallel road trip through the cacti-studded desert, meeting rattlesnakes, lizards and antelope en route.
