July 16th (Supercat)

We had J's and K's travelling together today. We picked them up coming around Colville heading Northwest towards Salmon Bank. Our passengers were treated to some big breaches by the orcas. Our 2pm trip found the orcas in an indecisive mood. When we reached them they were in a southwest direction from the South Beach area on San Juan Island. They looked as if they were going to head out west...possibly to meet up with L-pod who went west the day before. Then, after going as far as the ODAS buoy, one of the orcas slapped its dorsal fin two times in a row, and everyone turned around and headed back towards San Juan Island. Very interesting behaviour to witness.
