Orca again by Cape Mudge, off
Campbell River. Other Sightings are few and far between. There have
been a couple of Grey Whales appearing in the Puget Sound area of
Washington State. The shrimp draggers are still back and forth in
front of Powell River. There are cetaceans out there, but it's a big
ocean – keep looking!
Sad news of this morning's passing of
Spinnaker, the Pacific White Sided Dolphin who has been at the
Vancouver Aquarium since being saved from a net in 1991. A necropsy
is being done.
Hummingbird
update: They are very happy that the winds have eased.
They had a terrible time getting to the rocking feeder. My four birds
are feeding a lot with the two females actually sitting at the feeder
together lately.

Hi Susan, Just got a couple recent
reports of Orcas in our area the last couple days. The first
report was of a couple Orcas southbound past Cape Mudge,
Quadra Island around 1 pm March 6th.
The second report was of at least 4
Orcas northbound past Cape Mudge, Quadra Island at 6 pm March
7th. It looks like we are seeing more activity.
