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

No orcas present. Our small group of dolphins yesterday may have found some friends in Johnstone Strait! There were about 30 off Cracroft Point travelling east fairly quickly . We will try to follow them on the cameras (www.explore.org) There have been no call but during the night around 0445 there were a few faint calls heard. We did not located where the calls were from.

No calls but orcas nearby Not orcas but a lovely small group of dolphins just off the Lab moving each way slowly. No calls. Check out orcalab base camera on www.explore.org. Helena & Muriel & Paul 28 May 2017 16:18:06 PDT

Biggs were sighted near Big Bay on Hanson Island westing into the sunset. Jared reported that they are the T023s and T002cs. Janie 20 May 2017 20:40:26 PDT Biggs continue to be vocal on Critical Point!!  Janie 20 May 2017 18:42:16 PDT Biggs are vocal on the Critical Point hydrophone. Janie 20 May 2017 18:30:02 PDT

Just now heard LAGS at Critical Point, was also able to see them briefly on the camera, all just before sunset!! Janie 20 Apr 2017 19:10:08 PDT

We just heard faint Biggs calls on Flower Island!! Janie 26 Apr 2017 13:54:01 PDT

No calls but orcas nearby Got my wish! Ay 7:30am we spotted a single male off Parson Island headed toward Johnstone Strait. Yesterday, Gord reported at 4:12pm 5-6 orcas (Bigg's) heading west at Ledge Point. Helena 13 Apr 2017 08:32:27 PDT

No orcas present. Beautiful day today, sun is out and a slight breeze - what more can one want? Ah yes, something to swim by! Helena and Janie 11 Apr 2017 15:31:29 PDT

No orcas present. We are almost certain that during yesterday's storm there was a humpback in Blackney Pass in the afternoon! Encouraging, eh? Helena 10 Apr 2017 18:48:29 PDT

No orcas present. Lovely weather yesterday and today (after this morning). Spring is definitely here and with it a growing number of humpback reports as they make their way in and through the area. Black Pearl, just like last year, has started the season up in the Inlets and yesterday, Jared saw a humpback off Alert Bay. He also went in search of the orcas reported in the morning off Lady Ellen Point by Darryl. The Sea Lions have definitely taken off from their nearby winter haul out, most likely beginning their journey to the rookery. David and Brittney also have taken off to begin their journey home to Alaska. They should pass by Hanson by mid morning. We will be ready to wave while thinking how grateful we are for all their efforts to keep OrcaLab safe and running for the past three winters. Helena & Paul 06 Apr 2017 18:42:36 PDT

No orcas present. The last few days have been quite exciting as a fairly large group of Northern Residents came in and headed east past Robson Bight mid morning on March 23rd. We reviewed the recording of GIs, G17s and Cs making their way towards Robson Bight. Then, on March 25 these same groups came back to the west. Calls were heard around 7am. The Cs were in the lead and continued west and an hour later Jim and Mary Borrowman observed them spread out off the Telegraph Cove area. Our camera at Robson Bight saw the other two G clan groups heading back to the east at the same time. A bit later Elizabeth Zwamborn confirmed the I11s and G17s continuing east off Naka Creek around 1030. The Cs meanwhile were seen heading through Pearse Passage at 8:40 (thanks JB) and then later off Sointula by Gord Curry at 1030. Gord took a few pictures of the C6 males, which he passed on, thanks Gord. We think the Cs continued out of the area but we have not heard the G clan groups return so there is a chance there will be more activity if they decide to do so. Helena  26 Mar 2017 12:31:05 PDT

Superb sounds!! Morning! We're hearing nice resident calls on CP with close echoes on Parson Island and faint echoes on Critical Point David & Brittney 25 Mar 2017 07:09:20 PDT

Distant calls audible. We've heard a couple of calls through boat noise on Critical Point. Definitely Residents. David & Brittney 24 Mar 2017 19:55:22 PDT

Superb sounds!! The calls are on CP with faint calls on CRPT! Brittney + David 23 Mar 2017 10:45:20 PDT Distant calls audible. Morning, all! We heard some "ping" type calls from our house monitor just a few moments ago. No calls since the rec started but we'll keep you posted! Brittney + David 23 Mar 2017 09:51:47 PDT

No calls but orcas nearby We've got orcas in front of the lab on camera! No calls yet but they look like they're slowly heading towards Cracroft. David & Brittney 16 Mar 2017 09:40:48 PDT Orcas near mics. We just had a brief but intense flurry of Biggs calls on Critical Point. They've gone quiet for the moment but they sure sounded happy.  David & Brittney 16 Mar 2017 09:40:06 PDT
