A WHALE and her calf have been delighting crowds of people on the Elliston jetty for the past six days.

The southern right pair arrived last Wednesday and have been resting in the bay completing loops into the jetty much to the pleasure of the crowd.

Scores of locals and tourists have been visiting the jetty to marvel and take photos of the pair who have been putting on a playful show.

Yesterday the pair was still nearby the jetty.
