No orcas present.

Good morning! We last heard calls at 11:30pm (last night). It seems like all the groups continued to the east.

Le Caique (Robson Bight Charters out of Kelsey Bay) reported this morning that the whales: probably all of last night's groups; the A12s,A30s,A4s,A43s,A25s & C6s + the A36s and A8s, are quite far to the east in the lower eastern portion of Johnstone Strait and still eastbound.

The Naiad now reports that it is the A30s and quite a few others nearing Forward Bay.

Orcas (may be) approaching cameras.

The A30s and A4s are now off CP. Ch.A!

Distant calls audible.

The whales have gone to the north through Weynton pass. They are slowly coming down to Blackney with flooding tide. We are hearing the A30 calls on FI.

Distant calls audible.

We have been hearing the A30s in Blackfish Sound fro time to time. They never did come back down through Blackney on the tide.Instead they probably met up with the A35s (and perhaps the A24s as well) after they came through Weynton Pass. The A30s,according to the Lukwa,were off Bold Head and then moved west to Donegal where the young ones from all the groups became involved in a lot of play. One can just imagine the lovely evening scene.
