Winter heralds the opening of the so-called humpback highway, a migratory corridor along Australia 's east coast .

About 40,000 humpback whales travel from feeding grounds in Antarctica to breeding areas off Queensland state.

The reason humpbacks on the highway are so visible is due to their size adults can be 16-17 meters ( 52-56 feet ) in length, and weigh 40 tonnes .
