K and L pods at Lime Kiln Park San Juan Island, USA. Jpod was not with us at this time however all 3 pods were sighted together later in the day.

The animals in this group were very communicative to one another with lots of tail slaps. Large groups traveled north and very closely together. Belly rolls, spyhops, breaches and some affectionate behavior between two orcas (see top image). Another group appeared with Mega L41 heading south bound, passing another large group heading north. There were whales EVERYWHERE! No matter where you looked, you could see dorsals and dorsals all around.

Please read the post below for more details.
