J Pod in Deer Harbor

Monday, June 14th, 2010


Some of J pod came through Pole Pass into Deer Harbor. They looked a little confused before they came through the pass, probably because over half of the whales had never been through there before so the elders had to lead the way.

Today K pod made a showing for the first time this season on the west side of San Juan Island, along with J pod and some of L pod. 85% of the resident orca are back in the islands, a very comforting feeling.

Happy Birthday Granny!

We saw J-2 today, also known as Granny. This year, 2010, she is estimated to be 100 years old. And still going strong I might add. Happy Birthday Granny!!
