Gray Whales Sighted March 8th, 2008!

3 Gray Whales were sighted today from the Island Explorer 3 on our first tour for 2008!! More details coming soon from Island Adventure's Naturalist, Kate Janes! "A great day with the whales to start or 2008 season! We had 3 Gray Whales sighted only 40 minutes after leaving the dock! We identified the whales as #531, #56, and #49 Patch, who is an annual visitor to this area. The Island Explorer 3 was near Camano Head where our guests got to see 3 Bald Eagle nests - we spotted 3 adult eagles and 1 juvenile. We also got to see a California Sea Lion feeding, Pigeon Guillemots, Glacous-Winged Gulls, Brandt's and Pelagic Cormorants, Canadian Geese, and our friendly dock-side Harbor Seal, Norman paid us a visit!" Next tour will be March 15th!
