Latest whale sightings

Well, as some of you may have heard, we've had a couple of visits from the Kodiak Killers over the past few days.
I received several reports on both Monday and Wednesday that there were 5 or 6 cruising through the channel. I even had one report that "Bentley" was among them.
Unfortunately, circumstances prevented me from launching our skiff to take confirming photographs. Hopefully this is the start of several visits in the coming days or weeks.
For those of you who are keen on getting a good look at the Kodiak Killers during their next visit, you will be happy to know that I have finally figured out their pattern.
You can be sure to see the Kodiak Killers when:
1. Either Kate or myself are out of town (even better if we are both gone as was the case earlier this week)
2. Winds are greater than 20 knots

No gray whale sightings to report, although with this weather they would blend in with their habitat quite well.

Keep looking!
