Today our Wildlife adventure took us south east of Race Rocks to find the Transient Orca, T30's. These toothed whales, largest member of the Dolphin family, are the top predator of the seas. Under clear skies the 2pm zodiac set out with Skipper James, 'Radar' at the controls. We had visitors from France, the USA and Canada and England. We caught up with this family of four whales who were heading slowly out west. James shared his knowledge of the marine mammals with our guests .We ended our trip with a visit to Race Rocks, a protected Marine Reserve where we saw an immature eagle, four Elephant seals and Steller Sea Lions posturing on the rocks. It was another exciting west coast adventure, especially seeing the Orca in our coastal waters.Photos by Marie "Orca-Magic"
