L-pod in the fog plus a Gray Whale! July 21, 2010



















Here are a few images from this morning's exciting encounter with L-pod in the fog off San Juan Island! Please remember all images are taken with a 300mm lens and are heavily edited & cropped.

We had been listening to the hydrophone at Lime Kiln Lighthouse when we heard a few calls and knew there were Orcas in the area but in fog. So we headed over to the west side of San Juan Island hoping we could find the Orcas despite the fog and find them we did:) Today we encountered members of L-pod including L5 "Tanya", L54 "Ino" and her son L100 "Indigo". Despite the fog we had a wonderful encounter with L-pod!

On our way home we stopped off in Oak Bay and gave our passengers a great look at the Gray Whale that continues to hang out in the Bay. We also stopped at the Chain Islets and saw several Harbor Seal Mothers & their new born Pups, so cute:)
