Description

Date Taken: July 12th, 2016
Vessel Name: San Juan Clipper
Location: False Bay
Species: Resident Killer Whale Orcinus orca
Family Group: J16s (J pod)
Individual(s): J36 Alki and J52 Sonic

Notes: Today was another exciting day with J Pod on the southwest side of San Juan Island. After watching the J16 family (including the two calves in the group, J50 Scarlet and J52 Sonic) we got a report of a large group of Humpback Whales in the Strait of Juan de Fuca! We arrived on scene with the Humpbacks to find a huge group of over 12 of them feeding within a few miles of each other! With smooth conditions on the water, it was easy to spot them all around us.
