100% Whale Sightings for 2009

The Island Explorer 3 is on-scene with Gray Whales in Possession Sound. Stay tuned to the Whale Report for an update from Naturalist Kate Janes and click on the satellite link to see the position of the whales from space. "Our quest to find Gray Whales lead us up into Port Susan where we found #21 & #22! After arriving on scene we witnessed a behavior change as they moved closer into shore were their feeding commenced! Massive movements from their caudal peduncle moved the giants through the murky waters where their tasty ghost shrimp were residing! Later we found yet another Gray Whale, #383, who appeared to be heading towards #21 & #22 to join in on the feast! We also saw a mature Bald Eagle, California Sea Lions, Harbor Seals, Western Grebes, Cormorants, Pigeon Guillemots, & an Osprey!" - Naturalist Kate Janes
