Whales Near Gedney Island!
"To start our trip off today we found ourselves in the company of some very talkative California Sea Lions!! These large pennipeds we hauled out on channel markers giving our guests a great opportunity for a photo op! They struck a few poses and at the end of our visit waved us a farewell! We headed around the north end of Gedney (a.k.a Hat) Island and found our friend Patch (#49) the Gray Whale! He wasn't alone, #56 was swimming right alone side him almost in unison!! After a few great looks we headed north to Camano Head to visit with some Bald Eagles, Western Grebes, Glaucous-winged Gulls, and a shy Harbor Seal! As we made our way back to port we met back up with #56 and Patch for some final photos!! Just as we were departing the wind changed and our guests experienced the stench of the Gray Whale's breath!! It was another great day with the whales and wildlife!"
