Superb sounds!! Some gorgeous humpback vocals on flower island! David 28 Oct 2016 19:31:14 PST

No calls but orcas nearby The drought is over! A pair or orcas, one male and one female just blitzed through Blackney pass going south. We caught a quick glimpse of them through the storm on the lab camera. http://explore.org/live-cams/player/orcalab-base David and Brittney 25 Oct 2016 07:52:13 PST

Distant calls audible. There are some distant humpback vocalizations on the Critical Point hydrophone in this early morning! Brittney 21 Oct 2016 02:52:55 PST

Superb sounds!! We're hearing wonderful humpback vocalizations on Flower Island!   brittney 20 Oct 2016 18:33:05 PST

Distant calls audible. We're hearing distant Biggs (transients) on the flower island hydrophone. No sign of them in front of the lab, yet. Brittney 20 Oct 2016 09:35:38 PST Superb sounds!! We're hearing Biggs (transients) on the flower island hydrophone! Brittney & David  20 Oct 2016 09:30:08 PST

No orcas present. Hello Addie! So sorry, just saw your comment. Yes we will update orca live with links to explore.org when the orcas show up.  David 19 Oct 2016 16:42:53 PST No orcas present. Outside of a few brief notes from the humpbacks, all is still quiet around here. Still anxiously awaiting our first orca sighting of the fall.  David 19 Oct 2016 16:19:40 PST

No orcas present. It's been quiet on the orca front sine we arrived. There's still a few humpbacks about but even they haven't been all that chatty. Perhaps today's the day that changes.  David and brittney 16 Oct 2016 08:02:14 PST

Superb sounds!! There's a humpback tuning up for Hawaii on the parson island hydrophone.  David and brittney 11 Oct 2016 20:54:55 PST

Orcas near mics. Inukshuk the humpback is out front feeding and moving around with some sea lions. On explore.org! Inukshuk is also making sounds from time to time. Orcalab 08 Oct 2016 16:14:34 PST Distant calls audible. Dolphins in Johnstone Strait. Orcalab 08 Oct 2016 04:11:00 PST

Orcas near mics. We have a singing humpback in Blackfish Sound - not too, too vocal yet but thinking about it on this very wet and stormy night! Orcalab 06 Oct 2016 18:44:20 PST

No orcas present. We had word this evening from Jared Towers that Simon Piddock took pictures of the I13s in Queen Charlotte Strait this afternoon. They were last seen heading west of Malcolm Point. Thanks to Simon and Jared. Orcalab 04 Oct 2016 21:31:36 PST

No orcas present. Well we finally stopped hearing distant calls and have come to believe the A34/46s must have headed out through Weynton. Hoping we are wrong! But we did not hear them come around to Blackfish Sound and the tide was ebbing as of 6:15pm.  Orcalab 03 Oct 2016 18:08:41 PST Distant calls audible. We have been listening to the A34/46s for the whole day now in Johnstone Strait. The calls have been very distant at all times. We thought that just before 2pm they might have turned. The calls remained very distant.lots of boat noise and a vert choppy sea have not helped. Orcalab 03 Oct 2016 16:23:58 PST Distant calls audible. The A34/46s are spread out mid strait foraging west of Cracroft Point at the moment. Orcalab 03 Oct 2016 11:12:19 PST Distant calls audible. And A46 too! Orcalab 03 Oct 2016 05:38:06 PST Orcas near mics. Nice surprise! A34 calls in Johnstone Strait. Noisy boat noise as well as there is a fishing opening too. Orcalab 03 Oct 2016 05:25:45 PST
