Look carefully and you'll see this orca grab the fish between his teeth. The orcas in northern Norway corral enormous schools of herring into bait balls so they can stun them with their tails before picking them off one by one. The bait ball had already moved on, but this young orca spotted a stray herring out in the open and saw an opportunity for a free lunch! . . . .

Posted @withregram • @eclipse_j41 Amazing day out yesterday with the T46s, T137s, and the T60s. I was able to see cute little T60G for the first time yesterday along with getting to see a very curious T46D Strider. • • • #transientkillerwhale #transientorcas #biggskillerwhales #orca #killerwhale #blackfish #orcawhale #cetacean #dolphin #whale #sea #ocean #sji #sanjuanisland #fridayharbor #pnw #pacificnorthwest #salishsea #wild #wildlife #photography #wildlifephotography #wildandfree #nofishnoblackfish https://ift.tt/39M7sas

@marinewildlifetourism Credit © 📷 @debbifincher Did you know? The little transient (T46b1b) with the faded colour is named after the Salish word Tl'uk, which means moon 🌖 Have you spotted the little moon in the Salish Sea yet? 📷@debbifincher with @sanjuanexcursions 🖤🌑 #marinewildlifetourism #moon #orcawatching #T46b1b • • • • • #orca #orcas #orcagram #killerwhales #killerwhale #blackfish #seapanda #unique #whitewhale #white #beauty #transients #transientkillerwhale #sanjuanexcursions #t46b1b #whiteorca #biggskillerwhales #salishsea #wildlifephotography #whalewaching #fridayharbor #whales #dolphins #naturephotography #wildlifephotography #orcaholic https://www.instagram.com/p/B0_dB7nifwf/?igshid=19ceu579bqlwg

Via @marinewildlifetourism Credit © 📷 ✅ @yourtofino Transient killer whales in the waters of the Pacific Northwest are often referred to as the 'Bigg's Killer Whales'. They were named after Dr Michael Bigg who has fundamentally shaped modern killer whale research. The photo ID techniques we apply today, looking at dorsal fin and saddle patch to tell individuals part, were developed by Bigg and his team in the 1970s which was pretty much revolutionary. He also initiated the first orca census which, during that time, was quite unique since this hasn't been done with any other wild animal before. Unfortunately Bigg passed long before his time, but his legacy still remains which is reflected in the animals he studied as well as scholarships and a nature reserve that is world-famous for it's pebble beaches where orcas frequently gather to get a good rub.
