Distant calls audible.

The A36s and the A5s have come through Blackney Pass headed for Johnstone Strait. The I15s have moved further west toward the Robson Bight area.

The I15s are heading back to the west, audible on the rubbing beach hydroplane a short while ago. Meanwhile, the A42s and A36s are in Blackfish Sound.

Superb sounds!!

The A5s are chatty! They are still in Blackfish Sound. Sounds like they are heading towards Blackney Pass. Also we are hearing few I15 calls. They are at east end of the reserve.

No calls but orcas nearby

The I15s have been spread right across the Strait with a few on the Vancouver island shore. Someone made it as far as the Beaches to be heardthere but there was no real commitment yet for a rub.

Superb sounds!!

The I15s are currently being very chatty on the Critical Point hydrophone. Unfortunately, there is a lot of boat noise in the background.

The I15s are having a lazy day slowy easting from Blinkhorn after entering johnstone Strait via Weynton Pass. Meanwhile, yesterday's Biggs whales went past the Boat bay camp aroup 11pm and today they are very far to the east near Discovery passage. no word on the A36s or A42s who we last heard in Blackfish Sound at 9:44pm.

The boats are reporting possibly the I15s relaxing in the tide off of the Plumpers.
