Credit © 📷🖋 @orcaspiritvic This beautiful moment was captured as we came on scene with a family of killer whales that is very local to the Salish Sea. ⁣ ⁣ They are known as the T065As. This family typically is made up of 6 whales, but T065As oldest male wasn’t travelling with the family today. This means we got to spend the afternoon with 5 whales. Mom, T065A, aka Fingers was born in 1986, her second-oldest, T065A3 (Amira), was born in 2007, her third-oldest, T065A4 (Ellifrit), was born in 2011, her fourth-oldest, T065A5 (Elsie), was born in 2014, and her most recent, T065A6, was born in 2018. ⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ This type of family travels in Matrilines, meaning that they are based around mom, and mom is in charge. #girlpower⁣ #momboss ⁣⁣ ⁣ Moms in killer whale families call the shots, they tell their kids when to eat, how to eat, and what to eat. #smartwhales⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ #experiencethewild #orcaspiritadventures #killerwhales #orcas #exoloreBC #exploreVictoria #PNW #YYJ #naturephotography #wildlifephotography #whalewatching https://www.instagram.com/p/B1HX_9jC5Y2/?igshid=w8c085kk9k2u
