Whale Watching San Juan Island Near Seattle

Wednesday, August 27, 2008

The Whales headed to Canada, so to Canada we went.

This morning, I awoke to cloudy skies and chilly weather. Figuring it may rain, as it has had a tendency to do lately, I packed my rain pants and headed to work. Well, I've heard that if prepare for rain, it doesn't rain. That mentality seemed to work today, because by the time we were ready to leave, it was sunny and warm. Captain Denny, our guests and I headed north toward Canada. We caught up with the leaders of the group heading north, likely to the Frazer River to fish for salmon. The group of orcas we were traveling with today were some members of L Pod, including L41, Mega and L57, Faith.
We saw a couple spy hops, but for the most part the group was travelling northward in tight clusters. We travelled with them until we reached East Point, then headed back to Friday Harbor.
