No calls but orcas nearby

Just got a report from Jim Borrowman that 4 orcas were off Telegraph Cove heading east at dusk, including T19B. The wind was blowing SE 30kts at the time! The T18/19s were in the group off the lab yesterday, so it appears that they are still in the area. Perhaps that was them chatting on Flower Island earlier this afternoon...unless there are more orcas around?!?

No calls but orcas nearby

The transient calls only lasted for about 5 minutes. The orcas have not ventured south into view even though the current is flooding in.

Distant calls audible.

Transient calls in Blackfish Sound!
