[CINC] Whales Viewed from Condor Today

Thu Aug 16 22:29:47 PDT 2012

Another bonanza day for whale watchers on the Condor Express today! Captain Dave took us out to the island's north side between SCI and SRI for lots of action. We observed:

8 blue whales
10 Humpbacks
6 Dall's porpoises
125+ long beaked dolphin, with lots of calves

Naturalists on board included John Kuzienga (PID), Cubby Winkel and myself. John got PID's on about 4 Blues and 8 Humbacks. Very successful day in the channel.
