No calls but orcas nearby

I think those kelp horns (see: http://orcalab.org/) must have worked because the pelagic Biggs whales that had been seen in the lower Jonstone Strait today made their way west this evening passing Telegraph Cove and Alert Bay a short while ago. They had turned off Camp Point at 12:20pm and made good time to these parts. Apparently, these whales are usually found off of Oregon and have only been seen once offshore of the BC coast. Pretty special and rare sighting. Amazing amount of Biggs activity recently especially from the T109As and T12A who have been present each day for the last three days. They went out through Weynton Pass earlier today.

Lukwa reports that T109s and T12A are now west of Hanson Island reefs after being spotted just below Blinkhorn Island.
