You'd think they could have at least have reciprocated the attention...

Aha(b)!... Well, they were not reported as having done so. Whales surrounding a boat are generally noticed.

That is an absolutely bizarre thread title. :P

Mind you, Martin has an Aquamanesque power - "whale empathy".

The whale-watchers knew the risks when they went out there. The whales realized that, hence their indifference to the fate of the watchers. They didn't even mount a rescue mission, fearing liability.
