VALLEJO, Calif. (AP) - Two lost whales closed in on their ocean home Tuesday evening, passing under a busy bridge and entering San Francisco Bay after being lost in inland waterways.
The mother humpback and her calf, who have sojourned for more than two weeks in the Sacramento-San Joaquin River Delta, passed under the Richmond-San Rafael Bridge on Tuesday afternoon, the next-to-last bridge along the pair's route.
"They're heading very much in the right direction," said Rod McInnis, a spokesman for the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration.
