We've heard no calls for several days, during which our internet connection has been down because of power problems. We're up again, for the moment, but aren't sure for how long. Please accept our apologies for the inconvenience. As the days get longer, & sunnier, we should stay better connected (hope so).

No calls but orcas nearby
Sounds like the A5s have headed past Critical Point after closing in towards Robson Bight.

I31s moving closer to RB
Distant calls audible.
They are back! At least the I31s. Signal is a bit scratchy but working.

Sounds like the I31s are moving closer to Robson Bight. Must be very restful out there today because pretty much all we have heard all afternoon have been resting calls. Blackney Pass has been calm all day for a change!

I31s and A5s
Orcas near mics.
Since the last note: the whales were back till about midnight the other night. Right now, I31s are calling in Johnstone Strait! And As (?A8s) too! Something delicious must be encouraging them to stay around.

I31s A5s
No orcas present.
Compounding our connection problems, power went down in Alert Bay just after we posted our last comment, so we lost our internet connection again (and stopped streaming). Power is back & so is our connection this morning, but we've heard no calls since last evening, when we thought the A5s (A8s) & I31s were headed to the east in Johnstone Strait. We're streaming again, and our hydrophone network is functioning, for the moment, so we are waiting... apologies for the frustration (we're experiencing it too).

Superb sounds!!
Sounds like the I31s and A5s (Jared reported yesterday seeing the A8s) are returning again. Stormy seas today but a lovely afternoon sky.

A5s and A31s calling
Superb sounds!!
Hi everyone!, just had to say this was good even though the calls are fairly distant because it is so lovely to have this winter visit from the A5s and I31s. This morning,just after 11am we started to hear calls and we have been recording ever since while we did some repairs on the system. We should be streaming now so enjoy the sounds!

Superb sounds!!
The Calls from the I31s and A5s are louder now and still quite frequent. The computer coughed up a security check and so the streaming was interrupted. Would you know it? I just checked and we are streaming now.
