Tonight, after spending some time with the T65As in Sansum Narrows, we decided to go north a look for a big group of Bigg’s (Transient) that had been seen up there earlier. We found them out in the Strait of Georgia and what a good decision it turned out to be!! Awesome watching the T49As,…

Insane Encounter with Bigg’s (Transient) Killer Whales – 28/12/17

T65s, T51, T91 and T49A – 26/5/14
We had reports of T’s (Bigg’s or Transient Killer Whales) south of Active Pass as we left the dock, but as we motored out of the harbour we received a report of inbound Orcas around Becher Bay. I was really hoping these were residents, but they were a large group of transients (Exciting either way!)…
