Summary for November 16 2019 Today was one of those days calling for a hot chocolate and a book by the fire. The wind picked up early morning and it rained all day. But we chose to stay in the lab and spend some time editing videos for the new OrcaLab website (coming soon!) and looking at photos of humpback whales we took earlier this month. Speaking of humpbacks, we did not see a single blow today. They would have been easy to miss in this weather but we got a feeling that some humpbacks have started their migration south. All marine mammals stayed quite discreet in this choppy weather and there was no sound on our hydrophones. But we got to see a fair amount of birds! Two harlequin ducks were feeding in front of the lab and a massive bait ball attracted seagulls and bald eagles into an incredible feeding frenzy at the entrance of White Beach Pass.  Orcalab 17 Nov 2019 22:52:29 PST
