Superb sounds!! The I15s have moved into Blackfish sound and are being very vocal.  Molly and Momoko 30 Jul 2014 21:40:53 PDT Orcas near mics. The I15s are passing in front of the lab. Heading north in Blackney Pass. The  Momoko 30 Jul 2014 21:21:15 PDT Orcas near mics. Some of the A42s went in for a rub. A66 looked very involved. The I15s further to the west passed under the Cliff. The A36s were not far away at that time. The A42s have since returned to Robson Bight. Meanwhile, a group of Biggs entered Johnstone Strait via Weynton Pass. They have been identified as the T19s with T18. They are moving east.  Helena  30 Jul 2014 18:49:00 PDT Orcas rubbing on the shore bottom. A42s in at the beaches Helena  30 Jul 2014 17:34:24 PDT Distant calls audible. The A36s being the gentlemen they are led the A42s back to the Strait. We believe I76 was travelling again with the A42s. Then followed the rest of the I15s who had come around Blod Head and east in Blackfish Sound. The R4s have left to the west after parting company earlier this morning after travelling through Weynton Pass with the others. Helena  30 Jul 2014 16:08:12 PDT Orcas near mics. More ORCAS! we are streaming! http://orcalab.click2stream.com Anja 30 Jul 2014 15:18:56 PDT No calls but orcas nearby The orcas are passing in front of the lab to the south. The camera is on. http://orcalab.click2stream.com OL crew 30 Jul 2014 14:33:57 PDT Distant calls audible. We are hearing the As. They are in Blackfish Sound and heading east! Just in case, the camera is on! http://orcalab.click2stream.com Molly & David & Momoko 30 Jul 2014 13:06:40 PDT No calls but orcas nearby Today in the Strait there has been R4s, A42s, A36s and I15s. Whales are reported now off of Stubb's Island after heading west in Johnstone Strait. OL Crew 30 Jul 2014 11:25:47 PDT No calls but orcas nearby The western movement continues. The whales according to the Cliff are spread out from the Sophias to the Western Boundary. The R4s may be off Robson Point.  Helena  30 Jul 2014 08:49:21 PDT Multiple pod calls audible. After the I15s and A5s touched in on the Main rubbing beach they turned and headed back to Robson Bight where we heard them for a short while. The Rs were over on the other side when going east. They have been fairly silent but we imagine they are part of the swing back west. Helena  30 Jul 2014 08:40:57 PDT Orcas rubbing on the shore bottom. lovely rub OL  30 Jul 2014 07:15:24 PDT Multiple pod calls audible. Apparently the orcas are spread across Jonstone Strait from Boat Bay to the Vancouver Island shore still east bound. We should mention that once the incoming groups got into the Strait the A36s became more evident. They are calling now. Helena & Kate & Lilly 30 Jul 2014 06:47:46 PDT Distant calls audible. We're hearing distant A & G clan calls on the Critical Point hydrophone, as the orcas make their way east in Johnstone Strait. No Rs for a while, but they're in the Strait too.. Momoko & Paul 30 Jul 2014 05:37:00 PDT Distant calls audible. It had looked hopeful for a while that the whales might choose Blackney. However,the whales elected to go through Weynton Passage and are just now entering Johnstone Strait. Lovely to hear all three clans together and very neat how the A5s went up to meet them coming in.  Helena & Anja & Momoko 30 Jul 2014 03:28:21 PDT Multiple pod calls audible. Get ready! It is going to be a busy night! Here come the Rs, the I15s, the afore mentioned A5s. They are all in Blackfish Sound headed to Blackney Pass by the sounds of it. Pretty exciting. Helena & Anja 30 Jul 2014 02:39:38 PDT Orcas near mics. After reaching the Bight the A5 group ( A23s and A25s) along with the A36s fell silent. Now, we are finally hearing clear A5 calls in Blackfish Sound.  Helena & Anja 30 Jul 2014 02:00:00 PDT
