Orcas in the mist! Aug 12th, 2011




















Despite fog covering several parts of the Salish Sea we still managed to find J & K-pod in the mist near Middle Bank:)

We had a wonderful encounter with breaches, spyhops, and tail slaps as the Orcas headed East towards San Juan Island.

The highlight of the morning was watching one of the youngsters playing around and rolling on its back:)

A stop at the Chain Islets on the way home provided an opportunity to see the Harbour Seals and Pups, plus various marine birds.
