A blue whale was caught on camera leaving a streak of greenish-yellow behind its trail as it passed stool off the coast of Australia. According to a Daily Mail report, the blue whale was migrating south along the western Australian coastline when a team of researchers spotted it defecating. Landscape photographer Ian Wiese, who was also stationed at Point Picquet, south of Perth, filmed the whale.
