A few photos of the two transient Orca pods seen during the day spent with Island Adventures Whale Watching. Captain Carl, Naturalist Mike (also a Captain) and Naturalist Brooke were wonderful! The tour lasted 5.5 hours and I for one didn't want the day to end. If you're ever able to get to Anacortes, WA for a day of whale watching this is the company I'd recommend.
We followed the first pod for what seemed like a couple hours. They frolicked around and even showed us their bellies. Seeing a second pod was a bonus. When they started hunting a harbor seal between our boat and a sailboat, well, that was just down right amazing!

Meet Captain Hook
This is Captain Hook, also known as T40. He's part of a transient whale pod in the San Juan Islands near Anacortes, Washington. And, yes, that's the corner of our whale tour boat in the photo. Absolutely the most amazing day of whale watching EVER! More photos to come.
