Unlike the resident orcas, who primarily feed on fish, Bigg’s orcas are marine mammal hunters. Their diet includes seals, sea lions, porpoises and even small whales. They are highly skilled predators, traveling in small, tightly bonded family groups. One such family is led by T090, known as Eagle, a female born in

On Friday, Port Townsend's whale watching tour spent time with the T99 and T18 families of Bigg's orcas near San Juan Island. We then ventured to SE Vancouver Island to get our first humpback whale sighting of the year! We were fortunate to see BCX1460 "Black Pearl" with a new calf. This whale normally favors NE Vancouver Island and is less-commonly seen in our neck of the woods. Our Edmonds tour was able to spend time with no less than FIVE gray whales. | Puget Sound Express
