5-27-14 Hey - That's What the Residents Do!

Tuesday, May 27th
...Transients passing the lighthouse - again!  This is getting to be a common occurrence...

...on up island not far from shore...

...the lighting was spectacular and the seas flat...

...and the babies...they are always so 'cute'!  (T49A4 and T65A5)

...Hi Phyllis and David!!

...passing the Center for Whale Research...

...and into Open Bay...

...watch them as they are stopped ...it is not seen that often...sorry it's so shaky and it's difficult to see their fin tips at first...

...out of Open Bay and on up along the shore of Henry Island - "Hey, wait a minute, this is what the Rezzies do!"

...before heading back to the harbor on Maya's Westside Charters to pick up another group of whale watching seekers, we made a quick detour to show the folks on board the two adult males T93 and T97, who have become quite the regulars this last month...as you can see they were way off shore and not traveling near the other group...

  ...when the T49As and the T65As got to Turn Pt. they turned right and from then on they went back and forth...

...Moresby Island in the distance...

...they didn't eat anything all day long, but I learned that they made a kill a while later...Dave from the Center for Whale Research was on scene...he got some fun pics of them...check out their site as they are listing their encounters section available for viewing...
