Hi All,
Grays: 4
Rissos: 12-20
Dall's Porpoises: 6-20
Blue Shark: 1
Amazing day on the Channel with calm water, clear skies, much
sunshine and wonderful sightings. Spotted the Grays in the gap
between Santa Rosa and Santa Cruz and on the south side of Santa
Cruz. However, the most remarkable of the sightings was the pod of
(normally illusive and shy) Dall's Porpoises bow riding for 10 or 15
minutes! I had never seen them so close and around for such a long
time. They are truly beautiful animals.
MAGIC!!
