There is always something to see when one experiences a wild life adventure with Prince of Whales. Today was no exception for the weather was perfect. Our experienced skipper Mark, 'Mallard' headed the 1pm Zodiac out of the harbour and tuned east. Before heading out we encountered a sea duck, Long-Tailed Duck which is most unusual to find inside the harbour. A quick visit to the Chain Islets gave our visitors, from Edmonton, Winnipeg, England and Victorians, good looks at two immature Bald eagles, Harbour Seals and Harlequin Ducks. Our trip then took us into Haro Strait were at Henry Island we saw an eagle at its nest and a pair of Peregrine Falcons swoop into their Eyrie, perhaps to breed. Two or three separate groups of Dall's Porpoises were seen during our trip, along with incredible views of the spectacular scenery. A visit to Spieden Island revealed more perched Bald Eagles, Mouflon Sheep, Sika Deer and 9 lounging Steller Sea Lions. This was an amazing wild life adventure under blue skies. Our visitors were thrilled. Photo's by Marie "Orca-Magic"
