Glistening Backs of 3 Gray Whales- Thursday, April 16th

"Our journey today lead us just outside the marina to a shallow bank off the south end of Gedney Island where we found Gray Whale #383 cutting feeding patterns! After some great looks and time spent with him we saw in the distance two more whales! So heading north along the east side of Gedney we caught up with Patch, #49, and #723 affectionately referred to by Captain Michael as "LP" or Little Patch! They made a wide turn about mid-island and quickly made their way towards the very same bank #383 had been feeding at! Also seen on today's adventure included Rhinoceros Auklets, Western Grebes, Osprey, Harbor Seals, and Bald Eagles!" - Naturalist Kate Janes
