BEAUTIFUL WEATHER AND WONDERFUL SIGHTINGS
We have had a string of weather that has been amazing and looks as if it is going to be around for awhile. Sun and whales, what a combination!
We’ve been seeing J pod with a subgroup of K pod (K 13 family) mixed in since early May. They have been in the routine of traveling around San Juan County feeding, resting allot and traveling. Two days ago the subgroup of K pod left J pod and travelled west out to the Pacific. On Tuesday, J pod also went west towards the Pacific. This is a normal routne in their behavior. They tend to be excellent managers of their resource (salmon). Instead of staying in the same location feeding and cleaning out the area, they move on and come back after the area has been replenished with returning salmon.
I wouldn’t be surprised to see K and L pod with the J’s when then come back to the islands. It’s about that time when we see all the southern residents back here. Could be today!
