6-23-14 Orca Dorsal Fin Slap Demonstration

Monday, June 23rd

...they were all together at Salmon Bank...
...they came up island on a gray day...
...in the lead was Granny J-2...
...they headed for Active Pass...

...along the way someone stopped...
...not sure what this was about...I believe it was Hy'Shqa J-37...
...a few minutes later another whale came over toward her...
...J pod was in the lead...
...
...on Maya's Westside Charters it was time for us to turn back...but we'd be back...
...when we returned J pod was already past the coal docks and heading for the Fraser River...luckily for us the L pod whales had turned toward Pt. Roberts and foraged as they moved east...
...our parting shot was Crewser L-92 and Mt. Baker...
It was still a gray day
brightened up
by the presence of orcas!
