11-18-15 How About Eight Humpbacks!

Wednesday, November 18th
...day after the storms and calm water once again...out on Peregrine to see what we could see...Capt. Jim at the helm we head down the west side...and surprisingly we come upon...
...highly unusual...but this year there have been more sightings of California sea lions and a few times finding them hauled out in unusual places...

...changing directions we head up island...over the next one and a half hours we encounter 4 pairs...all within a few miles...and one single humpback off in the distance...




...the third pair we saw...
...here are these same two who were together on a sunny day - 11-15...

...the fourth pair...they only showed us their dorsal fins which isn't often much help...
...no image of the single humpback...

...that was definitely a bonanza of a humpback day!
...orcas?...well...no telling where the Residents will show up next...
