Sightings from a wet and foggy day




Hi Everyone
Today was foggy and at times pouring day rain but that did not hinder our whale sightings. On our morning cruise we sighted 4 adult humpback whales. One we identified as Pina. The others didn't bring up their tails but one had scarring on its jaw and on its tail. It looked like it had been entangled at some point in time. On our second trip out we come across Flash and her calf. This will be Flash's 7th calf. Harbor porpoises, grey and harbor seals and Greater Shearwaters, Sooty Shearwaters, Puffins, Lots of Wilson's Storm petrels, Northern Fulmars, an on our way in we sighted 3 Great Blue Herons in the trees.
