Distant calls audible. Some faint dolphin calls on our Local left and Flower Island hydrophone. They also passed our camera, you can go and check them out on explore.org. Enjoy!  Muriel 26 Jun 2017 08:10:13 PDT

Superb sounds!! How interesting, here it is not even July and a humpback out there is Blackney Pass decided to make a few sounds! Helena  25 Jun 2017 23:53:13 PDT Superb sounds!! We are right now listening to dolphin calls in Blackfish Sound!  Svenja 25 Jun 2017 12:46:11 PDT

Oh! We almost forgot to mention, that Janie and Hermann also heard the A30's. What a happy time it is, when all the Clans start to work their way towards us! Thanks again, to Janie and Hermann for the reports!  Muriel  24 Jun 2017 13:14:04 PDT Hello everyone, We had some beautiful days lately, with some nice Humpback and Dolphin activity. After Guardian showed up and was around for a while, we now have some other well known Humpbacks back in the region. Last week we saw Squiggle, Ripple, Congar and Ojos Blancos/White Eyes. Its always nice, to see the familiar Flukes and Humps again! As the Sun is shining, the Humpback blows look gorgeous. You can always go and check our cameras, on explore.org and see it for your self. With the sun shining, it sure feels like summer has arrived. We look forward to a nice season . There has been a few Northern resident sightings and we are thankful for Janie and hermann for passing on their reports to everyone. They have seen all of the A5s, A4s (including Springer) and the A34s with A46. And of course, after three days of travel from here the C10s turned up in their area. So fingers crossed!

Distant calls audible. Some nice faint calls of Pacific White-Sided Dolphins on our local left hydrophone.  Muriel 17 Jun 2017 12:47:16 PDT

No orcas present. Today was about humpbacks and dolphins. Early this morning, two dolphins came very close into the bay and then disappeared. A short while later a group of about 50 headed south through Blackney. The rest of the day was taken up by humpback whales moving around, through and in the Pass. Christie reported that the T60s were in Knight Inlet. Helena 11 Jun 2017 21:50:20 PDT

No calls but orcas nearby At least the Ds have headed north through Blackney Pass, not sure about the C10s. It's a lovely moonlit night here, feels so great to be home!! Helena & Paul 09 Jun 2017 22:53:55 PDT No calls but orcas nearby This has been so exciting! We had just got back from Alert Bay when we heard the Ds had just gone south in Blackney Pass. We picked them up on the CP camera and followed them until they were very tiny whales in the big ocean. They called on entering Johnstone Strait, then went quiet and then vocal once again. They never sounded close to Critical Point but ahead of them were the C10s who had earlier also come into Johnstone Strait via Blackney Pass (see Paul's notes). The C10s disappeared just as the Ds came into the Strait. Surely they are still on the same track east? Last year, around this same time the Cs came in for a mid June trip. Amazing. Helena 09 Jun 2017 19:09:42 PDT Boat noise It was just a glimpse from the Lab, cameras & all, but the C10s have made it into the Strait and are now headed east towards the Bight. Their calls were fabulous as they passed the PI and CP hydrophones, but a procession of big vessels passed soon after - Alaska ferry then 2 cruise ships - so it isn't pleasant underwater! Just the same, it's looking like our 2017 season is underway, our day is made! Paul 09 Jun 2017 14:57:22 PDT Superb sounds!! Wonderful calls from C10s on PI hydrophone! Paul 09 Jun 2017 13:57:14 PDT Superb sounds!! The C10s are back! ID by Christie McMillan, thanks Christie! We're hearing them on the Flower Island hydrophone, may come into view of the Lab camera soon. Paul 09 Jun 2017 11:37:44 PDT

Distant calls audible. Some Pacific White-Sided Dolphins are very chatty on Flower Island hydrophone. Muriel 04 Jun 2017 09:44:45 PDT

Looks like the show is over. Thanks, to Stripe and Chunky for this amazing morning! Very humbled by their close visit, just before they went away.  Muriel 01 Jun 2017 12:12:10 PDT No orcas present. What a amazing surprise! A Humpback just breached in front of the Lab! Go check it out on explore.org. It happened at 10:12 am, about 10 min ago, on the Orcalab Base camera :) enjoy! Muriel 01 Jun 2017 10:29:07 PDT We have humpback out front of the Lab. Check out http://explore.org/live-cams/player/orcalab-base and scroll back for the breach! Guardian has been around for the last few days keeping Muriel very busy! Helena for Muriel 01 Jun 2017 10:19:11 PDT
