Gray Whales Count

Day 30

Wednesday, March 18, 2015

We passed six hundred and continue to be astonished by the numbers and consistency.


Today’s northbound Gray whales included a lot of juveniles as singles and pairs and sometimes paired with a bigger whale that makes us think of the coming calf migration. Historically, we are not yet to our peak day. We can’t quite imagine a count of more than 53, which occurred May 9, but this is a crazy year ...


Meanwhile, we again saw two different Harbor seals and an active group of about 30 Lags, with sea lions foraging west of us.Today, we saw only a pair of Bottlenose dolphins and a small group of about twenty Commons.


We have yet to see a Sea otter ...
