No calls but orcas nearby

Sorry for the late update! The I15s came up to the CP hydrophone range at 8:41pm. The last call was at 9:08pm on CP hydrophone. They have been quiet.

Distant calls audible.

The I15s are back on the Rubbing Beach hydrophone. Unfortunately there's a lot of boat noise around and their calls are still distant.

Distant calls audible.

We are picking up calls off the east end of the Ecological Reserve.

No orcas present.

The I15s apparently went east early this morning and have been reported off Kelsey Bay around 1pm. They are headed west and the Naiad Explorer is following them and is now off the Broken Islands. meanwhile, a large group of dolphins is being harassed off of the CP entrance to Blackney Pass area by a small sports boat. Too bad because it is an incredibly beautiful, clear day. Three humpbacks have beeb in Blackney most of the day, including the constant Guardian.

After fading off for a bit the I15s became louder again on Critical Point so are still not moving too far from the Bight area.
