Multiple pod calls audible.
It was quite exciting in the fading light to watch the groups of whales go through Blackney Pass. It has been a long time since we have heard Rs in this area. By the time the whales got to CP the sun was setting. It was so beautiful we were tempted to stop following the whales and just watch it. Some of the whales hung back and we suspected they were waiting for the A42s to join the parade from the west. The tide will turn in the hour and we will see what happens next. Did I mention the moon!

Boat noise
After the two groups went toward Blackfish Sound, the A5s returned to Johnstone Strait. They were close but brief and faded off quickly. We lost track of the A30s in Blackfish Sound.
