"The wildlife was coming out of the woodwork today even before our passengers boarded the Island Explorer 3! There to greet them dockside were a pair of mallards, a couple of Canada Geese, our friend Norman the Harbor Seal, and a feeding Pigeon Guillemot! The trend continued as we found our first Gray Whale (#21) of the day just moments after leaving the marina feeding in the Snohomish River Delta. After enjoying some of his feeding activities we ventured further north where we found Patch (#49) and a mystery whale, who upon closer examination turned out to be #531. The pair gave us a great show from displaying some feeding behaviors and produced a few deep dives resulting in them sounding their flukes!! Also seen today were a number of Bald Eagles, a pair of Ospreys, Cormorants, Harbor Seals, California Sea Lions, Western Grebes, Red-necked Grebes, and Surf Scoters!" - Naturalist Kate Janes
