6-13-17 The L12s Took Up Where They Left Off

Tuesday, June 13th

...the L12s are an interesting group...of course they all are...but this group is rather independent and 'travel to their own drummer' so to speak...
...they had come in yesterday and stayed down island...late this morning they began what might be the longest time taken to travel just 2 miles!...that's the L12s...
...here's a clip of them moving at their fastest today :)...





...at the end of the day as we were watching them going down island a humpback surfaced coming north...about 20 minutes later a humpback surfaced going south...I couldn't confirm 1 or 2 until I looked at images...it was actually 2 humpbacks...will post those images too...

...I did see some foraging at different times throughout the day and also a lot of resting...
...moving up island against an outgoing current...then later moving down island against an in coming current...maybe they are finding it easier to have the salmon come to them :) 

...after watching them for almost 6 hours today, no time left to post more tonight...they did some interesting and one unexpected action today...to follow in the next post...
