Sightings Report for August 26th 2018

Happy Sunday! The wind has been gusting all weekend, blowing more smoke through the area. The waterfront was bumpy, but around the corner. through Haro Strait waters were calm. 

Reports of Biggs killer whales came in before our fleet left the dock! There were several groups spotted in different directions, so we had our pick. The captains headed North were a pod was seen right off Sydney Pier. Once on scene the whales were spy hopping and breaching!! Because these whales work together to forage they will often celebrate their catch afterwards.  The pod was identified as the T99s, a group of 4 individuals. In the afternoon BC TIKA headed back out to catch up with them, as they continued to hunt in the Saanich Inlet!

~ Stay tuned!
