FastCat - 12:30 and 4:00 PM Trips






The two FastCat trips were spent with a lone Grey whale off Crescent Bay, Washington. The animal was slowly foraging, heading in a westernly direction. We had two amazing passes by the Grey whale, as seen in the above photos. In addition, we had a great view of the four pinniped species: Steller Sea Lions, Californian Sea Lions, Harbour seals, and Northern Elephant seals, at Race Rock MPA. We had a great opportunity to listen to Californian's barking and the Steller's growling. Enjoy the photos of the pinnipeds at Race Rocks. Note: the photos are zoomed in.

What a spectacular day in the Strait of Juan de Fuca.....watching marine life!
