April 13:
4:15 pm 4 Orca Northbound right by the
mouth of the Campbell River bucking tide. There's 1 larger calf.
Stayed with them till Orange Point at 5:15 pm. Nick was with them. I
think it may be the ones I saw with Captain Hook (T40). Young one has
a notch that looks similar and one of the females has a clean dorsal
while another has a couple of notches. Will send photos.
