Southern Residents Interact with a Humpback Whale – 17/6/12

Although the location of this interaction is lost to me I still remember this encounter with great fondness-it was an amazing day, it was Father’s Day,  and my dad’s first time out on the boat with me, and we saw all of J Pod hanging out with an unidentified Humpback whale. It was the first time I’d ever seen resident Killer Whales playing with a Humpback and they were just like little toddlers swimming and jumping all around it.  We were even lucky enough to see J2 “Granny” come close to the humpback a couple of times -what a truly special moment to share with my dad!

  1. Incredible story and thank so much for sharing it. Also, the fact that this event took place on Father’s Day and you were with your dad…what a bonus!
