I went on a whale watch yesterday. Many beautiful critters. (bull orca was ID’d as T060C)  Computer and office is all back up and running, so I’ll be able to get to some other things I’d been meaning to, soon.

Risso’s Dolphins

Notes: This is only the Second time that Risso’s have been documented in the Salish Sea! The current rare visitors (as of 01/29/2022) are a Fin Whale near Seattle (only the third time Fin whales have been in the Salish sea), a pod of Risso’s (pictured above) near Salt Spring Island, and the A42s of the Northern Resident Killer Whale Population in the Gulf Islands!
