Tales of Whales! - Saturday, April 25
AM: "It was unbelievable...truly it was. After seeing two Harbor Seals at the dock while Captain Carl was introducing the crew he found a Gray Whale literally right outside of the marina! A new record has been set and the only way to break it would be if a whale were to come inside the marina! We watched as he made is way along Jetty Island slowly sinking back through the water, barely arching due to how shallow the water was! We found some more of his friends- Patch (#49) at the south end of Gedney Island and another whale near the Washington State Ferries terminal at Clinton."
PM: "The summer time conditions spilled over into our evening trip and so did the whales! Our guests enjoyed visiting with Patch (#49), #383 & #22! We found Patch at the edge of the Snohomish River Delta and during one respiration his exhalation produced a rainbow as he set into a deep dive bringing his massive fluke out of the water! Did I mention that this all occurred right in front of the day marker where a mature Bald Eagle was perched?! Truly a beautiful moment!" - Naturalist Kate Janes
