[CINC] Blues off EAI Cathedral 9/11

[Marty Flam]

About 3:30 p.m. Friday, Sept 11, 
about eight blows in five minutes,
moderate surface travel heading east, 
about 400 yards north of East Anacapa's Cathedral Cove,
probably Blues, 
seen from Cathedral Cove overlook by Don Abbot and Marty Flam 
while leading afternoon Vanguard hikers to Inspiration Point.

*2 groups of Common Dolphins 100 and 200 
*Large group of about 100 Risso's 
*A couple of blue whales near Santa Rosa Island. At first they were moving very fast and Cpt. Dave said he thought it was racing behavior. Later they settled down and took more than one breath before diving again. Cpt. Mat said he thought that at the beginning there was a third blue that had taken off.  
*Megapod of 1000 Commons near Santa Rosa
*Naturalists: Morgan Coffey, Maryann Johansson, and me on PID
*Crew: Cpt. Mat, Cpt. Dave, Dennis (DJ), and crew-in-training Bailey
*One of the passangers puts out a zine about whales, you can check it out at http://www.kpetunia.com/whoosh.htm
*They'd issued whale checks on Friday but everybody was happy on Saturday
