- First; there was Humphrey; the wrong-way whale who lost his sense of direction in California and swam 70 miles up the Sacramento River before being turned around and herded back to sea. Now strange things are happening in Canada; where the huge mammals are being lured to the Great Lakes by unseasonably warm weather. One popped up in Toronto Harbor today and flipped his flukes for a Star photographer. But don't rush to look. You probably won't get a glimpse of it until next April Fool's Day.
