We had a great day with T46Bs T34s T37s and T99s. Three of us decided to head north this morning to search for whales. I discovered the T46B’s pod in Georgia Strait just as they entered Rosario Strait. This was a pod of seven animals. After viewing them for a while I pointed us north again to go see a Gray Whale that has been feeding on the same bank for over a week now.
On the way up, another boat picked up a group of 13 animals consisting of three pods. The Gray was not to be seen from us or the other boat. I wonder if he or she sensed the orca’s echolocation and moved out of their path since the feeding area was directly in their path.
We stopped to see a mother and calf humpback whale on our way home. Mom’s name is “Phi.” I don’t recall seeing her before.
