Gray Whale
(Complimentary eCard, click to download)
Today the southern residents were out in Sooke, past our range. On the 3:30 Ocean Magic trip, we crossed the entire Strait of Juan de Fuca to the flats of the Port Angeles Shoreline - Green Point - east of Port Angeles where a lone gray whale was feeding in the kelp bed. The animal, thought to be a she based on her size was very busy feeding, coming to the surface with remnants in her mouth. If you click on the images to enlarge, you will see her eye and something hanging out of her mouth. On our way back we stopped into Race Rock ecological reserve to see the different sea birds and Stellar sealions hauled out on the rocks. An adventure we had on the high seas today!
