Gray Whale Convention
"We found our first whale of the day moving off the bank at the south end of Gedney Island at a pretty good clip! Gray Whale #383 gave us some great looks as he gracefully moved through the water showing off his barnacles and splotches of sea lice that clustered about his head. After a great visit with him we ventured north where we found Patch (#49) and #723 making a sharp turn southward towards Gedney's southern bank- where #383 had been feeding on. Our guests enjoyed #723 showing off his fluke on one of his deep dives! The two giants eventually synchronized their respiration's allowing our guests the opportunity for some fantastic photos of the two side-by-side! Also seen today were Western Grebes, Double-crested Cormorants, Bald Eagles, Osprey, Harbor Seals, Rhinoceros Auklets and Glaucous-winged Gulls!" - Naturalist Kate Janes
