No calls but orcas nearby The A30s continued west and are approaching Blinkhorn. We have had a report of incoming whales travelling through Queen Charlotte Strait. Thanks Kate for the report. Helena 31 Jul 2012 20:11:13 PDT

Orcas near mics. The A30s sound like they are on their way back to the west. Helena 31 Jul 2012 18:00:39 PDT

Distant calls audible. The A30s are calling off of the rubbing beaches again. Helena 31 Jul 2012 16:03:18 PDT

No calls but orcas nearby The A30s are in a resting line heading east. They passed Critical Point (eastern end of Robson Bight) at 3:35pm. Before they came off the rubbing beaches and went west up to the Western Boundary where they turned east at 2:41pm. There were a few calls before they fell asleep. The A36s meanwhile are westbound through Nodales Channel. (Jack Springer report) Helena 31 Jul 2012 16:02:25 PDT

No orcas present. We've heard no calls overnight, and have no new information. to pass along. Meanwhile, we're running a test of live video streaming that we hope will last all day. The link is at: http://orcalab.click2stream.com/. Our internet connection is slow and sometimes intermittent at the moment, so please bear with us if you can't access the camera (check back). We would appreciate any thoughts or comments you may have via email to orcalab@island.net. Thanks! Paul & Helena & Paul 31 Jul 2012 06:54:30 PDT
