Humpback

This afternoon we had another memorable encounter with both a Humpback Whale & members of Lpod! We were on our way towards the south end of San Juan Island when we came across a lone Humpback Whale west of Hein Bank. After watching the Humpback for a while, including a number of tail flukes as it went on deep dives, we continued on our way to Salmon Bank. At the Salmon Bank marker we spotted two Sea Lions resting on the marker soaking up the heat of the day  We then moved towards Cattle Point where we encountered several members of Lpod! The pod split as part of them moved west towards Hein and part moved north up San Juan Island. It was great to see members of Lpod once again!
