Today, the T109/T109Ds came through the outer stretches of Clayoquot Sound, circling islets and ducking into bays. This is part of the extended family of T109A3A “kʷiisaḥiʔis”, the orphaned orca calf a short distance up our coast. T109 is the great grandmother of “kʷiisaḥiʔis”. The pod was last seen heading west up the coast from Flores Island – a good sign for a potential chance at reunion with her extended family!
