Visits with 3 Gray Whales!
"Moments outside of the marina two Gray Whales were heading towards Mukilteo's Ferry terminal. Shortly after arriving on scene our guests had the privilege of experiencing the stinky smell of a Gray Whales breath! Patch, #49, and his buddy #53 slowly maneuver through the water rising effortlessly up and then down. After some great looks we ventured North as Captain Carl had found us another whale. Presumably it was "Ziggy", a whale we nicknamed a couple of seasons ago for his notorious zigzagged movements for he was quite sporadic!! It wasn't long before another whale (#22) was sighted near the Snohomish River Delta and our guests were able to enjoy some great looks as #22, #53 & Patch at the end all joined up! Also seen on todays trip included Western Grebes, White-winged Scoters, Osprey, Rhinoceros Auklets, Pigeon Guillemots, Pacific Madrone, 5 Bald Eagles, and Harbor Seals!" - Naturalist Kate Janes
