Close encounter -- Pacific Gray Whale 
One of my biology professors (Kenneth S. Norris) told me, upon my showing him these photos, that the term "breaching" was an unfortunate one and that he thought it should be called "pitchpoling".
Pitchpoling would recall an actual term that was used by whalers of "Scammon's Lagoon".
