Hi All,
• Common Dolphins; one relatively small pod (100) and one large (1000)
• Humpbacks: 14
• Blue Whale: 1
Glorious, even though not sunny, day on the channel for 89
passengers ... most of whom were from out of our area. A feeding
frenzy of sea lions, birds, dolphins and whales ... tons and tons of
krill!
Lots of tail flukes, some pectoral fin action and extremely close
approach by one humpback. All this went on significantly east of the
usual spots near Santa Cruz and Santa Rosa.
Joined today by Shauna, Tina and a crew shooting an educational
film ... hopefully to eventually be seen on Discovery.
Great, great day!!
Valerie Olson and Sally Eagle on PID ... don't know how Sally could
keep up with the amount of action we had!
