Superb sounds!! A little later this evening but the Blackfish Sound humpback is singing again. Helena & Bianca 30 Sep 2013 21:14:30 PDT Mark counted around 180 sealions on the rocks just to our right. But there are lots of sealions in the water, too, so there must be at least 200 of them. We turned on the camera to show you the scenery!  Bianca & OL crew 30 Sep 2013 17:09:15 PDT Performing maintenance We are having problems with our internet connection, so are unable to stream live audio or video at the moment.

Orcas near mics. The humpback on Flower Island is singing now! Maybe it just wanted to wait until the storm is over, so that we can her its song properly! :) Bianca 29 Sep 2013 22:45:28 PDT Distant calls audible. Some dolphins came into Johnstone Strait: they are pretty vocal on Critical Point's hydrophone. Still a lot of water movement on all stations, the wind is getting worse over here! Bianca 29 Sep 2013 21:56:25 PDT I can hear a vocal humpback ever and anon on Flower Island's hydrophone. Not singing, yet. Bianca 29 Sep 2013 19:36:04 PDT

Superb sounds!! A humpback is singing on Flower Island!  Bianca 28 Sep 2013 19:34:24 PDT No orcas present. For the record: yesterday at 1pm 3 orcas were seen near Port McNeill (report via Marie), possibly T10s as they were in the area (report from Naiad via Jackie). Helena  28 Sep 2013 06:38:09 PDT

No orcas present. I could hear some few but distant humpback calls again on Flower Island - no singing, yet. Probably the one we heard 2 hours ago is still out there.  Bianca 27 Sep 2013 23:26:03 PDT Boat noise Even if the humpback was finally banished by heavy boat noise on Flower Island, it was one lovely hour of humpback song! I can hear some chatty dolphins now on Cracroft Point but the calls are faint and underneath boat noise. Still no sign of the orcas... Bianca 27 Sep 2013 22:13:12 PDT Superb sounds!! After another quiet day on Hanson Island one of the humpbacks in this area decided to sing! We can hear his lovely calls on Flower Island's hydrophone. Bianca  27 Sep 2013 20:19:20 PDT Two humpbacks just passed the lab very close, maybe 5 meters off the decks! I could hear some goofy humpback calls on Local Left/ Flower Island but still not enough as to call it a song. However this was a nice wake up at OrcaLab! Bianca 27 Sep 2013 07:36:56 PDT

Boat noise Can hear distant calls underneath boat noise on Critical Point. I think it's still a group of the G-Clan. Bianca 26 Sep 2013 19:37:08 PDT Distant calls audible. One distant/ midrange ping again! Could hear the call on Flower Island's hydrophone. Still not very vocal. Bianca 26 Sep 2013 17:54:39 PDT No calls but orcas nearby About two hours ago the June Cove reported one male Orca foraging between Donegal and Bold Head but I could neither hear calls on our hydrophones nor see Orcas in Blackney Pass. A few minutes ago I heard one ping call again but now the Orcas became quiet again. Don't know, yet, on which hydrophone it was. Waiting for more calls... Bianca 26 Sep 2013 17:48:10 PDT Distant calls audible. Ah we can still hear the I33s off blackfish Sound. Helena & Crew 26 Sep 2013 14:44:48 PDT No calls but orcas nearby Around Noon the I33s cleared into Blackfish Sound after travelling north through Blackney Pass. The two males,I45 and I62 were together mid channel and passed I33 and I110 who had entered Blackney Pass first. I33 and I110 had a few foraging turns and moved closer to the Compton Island side before also leaving for Blackfish. Helena & Crew 26 Sep 2013 13:39:28 PDT No calls but orcas nearby The I33s have travelled up the Strait and into Blackney Pass. We are streaming live! Helena & Crew 26 Sep 2013 11:29:35 PDT Distant calls audible. Just started to hear the I33s beyond the east end of the Reserve. OL crew 26 Sep 2013 07:25:44 PDT
