Those clear skies and warm temperatures continue here on the west coast of BC. Our experienced Capt. Anna took the 3.30pm Ocean Magic 2 vessel out of the harbour and turned east toward San Juan Island where members of L Pod, were reported. We were able to identify L 5, 'Tanya.', a female, L 84 , a male, and the family group of L 54. These Orca prefer Chinook Salmon and were busy chasing after fish when we caught up with them. A youngster delighted us with breaches, spyhops and tail lobs. Our expert crew of Biologist, Mika, and Naturalists Liz and Danielle shared their knowledge of all things wild in these waters with our international guests. Although the water was very choppy at the time with some wind present, we still had great looks at these wonderful creatures in the white caps, including a close pass by the boat of a female. Smiles were big as guests departed from the Ocean Magic once back in the harbour.
Marie, Orca-Magic.
