By DANIEL MILLS PUBLISHED: 21:15 AEST, 19 June 2014 | UPDATED: 07:27 AEST, 20 June 2014 The first pictures of one of the world's rarest sea creatures, Migaloo the white humpback whale, have been taken of the magnificent animal beginning his yearly migration north along Australia's eastern seaboard. The all-white Migaloo who shares his distinguishable albino appearance with just one other white whale in the world, a Norwegian, was sighted for the first time this year by a member of the public just off the coast of Green Cape in southern NSW on Tuesday.
