How many narwhals can you count in this photograph? When the feeding is good, they pack themselves in incredibly tight into these small openings in the sea ice to catch a quick breath before resuming the feeding frenzy. This was taken from my small ultralight airplane near Baffin Island, Nunavut. With Brian Knutsen, Dexter Koonoo and @jedweingarten while on assignment for @natgeo. #followme on @paulnicklen to see more pictures of narwhals and get a closer look at their long ivory tusks. #nature #whale #whales #beauty #aerial #instagood #photooftheday #explore #adventure #discovery #tbt
