COLOMBIA WHALES FESTIVAL 14

Jooin Jeb, a Wounaan village of about 130 people, sits on a tributary of the San Juan River in Colombia, June 24, 2024. Every year, as thousands of humpbacks return to their breeding grounds near a protected bay, locals gather on the beach to greet them with stories, dancing and music. (Jaír Coll/The New York Times)
