Pacific White Sided Dolphins and Wild Ocean Whale Society - WOW!

Pacific White Sided Dolphins and quiet on the Cetacean front. Hummingbirds are in full force though. That's at least a smile. At least on this side of the continent we're getting a bit of Spring.
Progress report: The official governing society of Whales and Dolphins BC is Wild Ocean Whale Society....or.... W.O.W. This seems very appropriate for some of the excitement with seeing whales in the wild. More paperwork is in the works.

Saltrey Bay to Earl's Cove Ferry was totally surrounded with Dolphins. I'd say easily 500 dolphins. They were riding in the waves and everywhere you looked. It was incredible!
