Distant calls audible.
We have continued to hear I11/31 type calls as the whales moved west this morning and early afternoon. They seemed to be fairly spread out with some near Blinkhorn(and west of) while others closer to the Hanson side after crossing the entrance to Blackney Pass. We followed earlier one group of 6 (with one male) through the Bight and then along the Vancouver shoreline. The Strait is a bit choppy today and there are lots of fish boats out ahead of the up coming opening.

We are hearing faint G calls on Critical Point, Parsons Island and Cracroft Point so I guess the whales are somewhere around the entrance of Blackney Pass.

No calls but orcas nearby
We had a report from Knight Inlet Lodge that there were some orca heading west in the reserve. We found them on the Main Rubbing Beach camera and we saw one male rubbing close to the shore. We then found more whales headed west mid strait at Swain Point. We are recording on Critical Point for when they arrive in the bight.

And the lovely Humpback calls continue. This time we are hearing them on both Parsons Island and Cracroft Point. There seems to be a lot of splashing going on at the surface to.

Beautiful singing Humpback on the Parsons Island hydrophone. Just lovely.
