27 Tours in a Row with Whales!!
"Gray Whales in sight!" reports Naturalist Jami Nagel from the Island Explorer 3! Stay tuned to the Whale Report for updates from today's tour! "Our passengers started out today with an amazing look at 3 bald eagles harrassing an osprey for his fish. The fish was the only winner in this battle! Next we took a cruise by our lazy California sea lions on the marker. As we headed out towards Hat Island we saw blows off the south end of Hat Island. Three gray whales were slowly moving toward the river delta. Patch, #49 and #22 were 2 of the whales. We stayed with them for sometime than headed toward Camano Head to check out an eagles nest that was faithfully being watched over by a mated pair. We also discovered a new eagles nest today on the west side of Hat Island! As we headed back toward Everett we came across the grays again. They were actively feeding with quite the following of surf and white-winged scoters!"
