Spotters have reported record numbers early in the whale-watching season, delighting tourists, boaters and divers.

Whale spotters stationed at Point Vicente in Rancho Palos Verdes have logged a record 163 sightings so far this December, more than they have seen at this point in 28 years. http://www.latimes.com/news/local/la-me-gray-whales-20111228,0,3865407.story
