We saw this mama and baby beluga at the Lester River visitor center the first weekend in April, 2023. The waves coming into Duluth were huge but she sought out the calmer water and smelt at the mouth of the Lester River. The mama was so easy to see with her light coloring but spotting the baby’s dark little head was an unexpected and very sweet surprise! I heard belugas were spotted off of Wisconsin Point in the spring of 2022 and was so happy to get to see them!
