The T2C pod of Killer Whales includes T2C2 who has Scoliosis of the spine. The pod looks after him in the way of feeding and always waits for him to catch up.

There was one other whale in the group that I did not recognize. T2C3 has more gray than black and white. I am told there is some albinoism involved with this pod of whales.

We saw some playful activity today and pretty good views. We saw Harbor Seals, Stellar Sea Lions.

For seabirds, we saw Bald Eagles, Black Oyster Catchers, and a Rhinoceros Auklet. The Auklet didn’t seem to be acting right. After seeing the pics wondering if he got into some oil somehow.

Nice to see the T2C’s & Unknown Orca today.
