Lady Liberty was upstaged by another giant in New York City's harbour on Thursday.
A humpback whale swam into the harbour and up to George Washington Bridge. It was visible from the Staten Island Ferry.
The U.S. coast guard broadcast a warning to boaters in the area to steer clear of the marine mammal.
Humpback whales can grow to as long as 16 metres in length. The whales are a rare site in the harbour.
