"It was yet another beautiful day out in the San Juan Island with a blue sky following us all throughout our journey today and a breeze coming out of the southwest. Our guests enjoyed a scenic tour through the heart of the San Juans where we saw multiple Bald Eagles, Turkey Vultures, Harbor Seals, and watched the Washington State Ferries heading in to dock. We made our way out Cattle Pass watching large groups of birds that were involved in a feeding frenzy before heading towards Castle Rock. There we found more Harbor Seals, Black Oystercatchers, 3 more Bald Eagles, and a Peregrine Falcon on Young Island! Unfortunately we did not find any whales today, but our guests will be able to join us again for free until they see whales with us...it's our guarantee!" - Naturalist Kate Janes
