    A large cetacean (whale) is partially surfaced in open ocean water with a scientific tracking/telemetry tag attached to its back. The white rectangular device appears to be a DTAG or similar suction-cup or dart-mounted biologging instrument used in marine mammal research. The image captures a close-up of the whale's dorsal surface with the tag clearly visible.
