an optometrist. The term eye doctor refers generally to an ophthalmologist, but is also used informally (and imprecisely) in referring to an optometrist. An ophthalmologist is a physician who specializes in the diagnosis and treatment of diseases of the eye.
Whale Watching Season. The best time for whale watching in Massachusetts is from April to October, although whales have been spotted in Bay State waters as early as mid-March and as late as early November. Whales migrate to Massachusetts to feed on mackerel, herring, krill and other schooling fish that breed in these nutrient-rich waters.
Watch for whales from Neahkahnie Mountain on the Oregon Coast. Oregonâs whale watching season peaks twice a year: during winter (mid-Decemberâmid-January) and spring (late FebruaryâMay). Thatâs when as many as 20,000 gray whales migrate between the icy seas of Alaska and their breeding lagoons in Baja California, Mexico.
