Massive Breach from Sprouter – 8/8/20
We battled today through some rough conditions to catch up with the T018’s in the Strait of Georgia. They were quite spread out and I was hanging out with T019B “Galiano” for a while and could see his brother, T019C “Spouter” in the distance. Just as I started to head over towards him, he did…

Mother’s Day with Bigg’s Killer Whales – 10/5/20
No boats in the water but thanks to a report from Louis, Tasli and myself were able to follow the T049A’s, T049B’s and T018’s from Nanoose to Nanaimo by car and foot.

Crazy Night with Bigg’s Killer Whales – 23/8/19
Crazy night as the T36As seemingly came out of nowhere and joined up with the T99s for a little porpoise snack. As the party continued, the T100s caught on and bombed in from the west to join. Lots of curious behaviour from the T99’s especially T99C! T99C approached our boat as we were watching them…
