Yesterday there were Humpbacks and Biggs Killer Whales passing by Anacortes, but today we were at the bottom of Saratoga Pass.

We were viewing the T36 pod of five orca today. The calf was very playful and fun to watch and so fast he or she was very hard to capture with the lens. On the way home we saw roughly 20 bald eagles feasting on what ever the commercial crabbers were tossing to them.

I captured a few other shots of birds and one with an oystercatcher had a glaucous gull photo bomb the shot.
