On March 15th, my friends and I had an encounter with the T124A2s and T124C in Satellite Channel/Sansum Narrows. The T124A2s and T124C were behaving like they had heard other transient orcas vocalizing nearby and they eventually led us to the T86As and T124Ds. This encounter can be viewed on the Center for Whale Research (CWR) encounter page here.
On March 21st, J pod was inbound in the Strait of Juan de Fuca. My friends and I headed out on the water and arrived on scene off of Victoria. The pod was slightly spread out in large social groups and heading toward San Juan Island. Ken Balcomb (CWR founder) was also on scene and his encounter summary can be viewed on the CWR encounter page.
On March 28th, Dave Ellifrit (fellow CWR staff) and I had two lone males known as T49A1 and T124C traveling west in Haro Strait together. They took us over to Halibut Island and killed a harbor seal just before sunset. The encounter summary can also be viewed on the CWR encounter page.
On March 29th, my friends and I found the T37As and T99s off of Stuart Island. They were in a playful/social mood but formed a resting line later on in Swanson Channel. This encounter can viewed on the CWR encounter page as well.
Who will we see next?!
