Whale Sighting... Sort Of

We started the day with breakfast at Tillamook Creamery in Tillamook, Oregon. After breakfast we hiked 5 miles round trip at Cape Lookout, OR. Afterward, we drove to Pacific City and had lunch at The Oar House. Driving back we made a quick impromptu stop at McPhillips Beach. While walking on the beach we met a lady who informed us of whales spouting on the horizon. We saw spouting and even saw a tail surfacing in distance. I was able to capture a spouting in the photo shown below. The 2nd photo is actually the same photo enlarged. Ended our day by going back to Tillamook Creamery for ice cream.
The spout is difficult to see in the top photo. In the enlarged photo below, the spout can be seen in the center.
